A psychologist who is helping the police to investigate the abduction of two children, finds herself connected to the victims in a way she couldn't have imagined.

Synopsis:
Katherine Ward is independent and determined. She's had to be to make it as a criminal psychologist in spite of a hearing disorder. But when the crisis she's trained for arrives, she's not prepared for the emotional toll or the physical danger.

In this case children are disappearing, and Katherine struggles desperately to discover the predator's pattern before another child is kidnapped. She faces indifference and even hostility from the police, especially Lt. Valerie Gill, a poker-faced cynic who has to prove her competence through contempt for Katherine's methods.

As the case unravels, so do Katherine's emotions. Childless herself and trying to adopt, she finds her personal passions merge with her work, especially when a startling link between the victims reveals a plot to exploit reproductive technology and leads back to her own family.

The predator will threaten her. The truth will overwhelm her.
