When forensic scientist Sara Linton and police chief Jeffrey Tolliver take a trip out of the small town of Heartsdale, it should have been a straightforward weekend at the beach. However, they decide to take a detour through Jeffrey's hometown, and things take a violent turn when Jeffrey's best friend Robert shoots an intruder breaking into his home. Jeffrey and Sara are the first on the scene, and Jeffrey is determined to clear his friend's name, but for Sara, the situation is not so simple. When Jeffrey seemingly alters the crime scene evidence, Sara is left wondering who she can trust.

Twelve years later, Sara and Jeffrey find themselves involved in a shockingly brutal attack that threatens to destroy their lives. But they are not random victims; they have been targeted. It seems that the past is catching up with both of them.
