But a gruesome, three-decades-old cold case is leading him into a strange world at the unlikely border between forensic science and tribal mysticisma place where evil hides behind a perfect faade. A long-forgotten murder in the Arizona desert now threatens to bring home a new horror for Walker and his family, who have already survived the dark hunger of two human monsters. And suddenly the relentless ex-cop is the only person who can still unravel a blood knot of terror and obsession before the innocent die again.
