The clock is ticking on a serial killer ready to strike . . .

Forensic photographer Miranda Rhoads has decided to put crime scenes behind her when she moves to the seaside town of Lost Beach. But her plans are quickly upended when, one morning, she comes across a couple sleeping in a canoe, entwined in an embrace. Looking closer, she realizes the man and woman aren't asleep - they've been murdered.

Detective Joel Breda is out to find answers - not only about the unidentified victims in the marshy death scene, but also about the aloof and beautiful photographer who seems to know more about his investigation than he does.

As they begin to unravel the motivation of a merciless serial killer, Miranda and Joel are in a race to make an arrest - before the killer can find them first.
