All the missing victims of North Carolina’s deadliest serial killer have been found, all except Rachel Smith. When the FBI produces a photo proving Rachel is alive and well in Texas, one case is closed but another one is opened. Either this is a case of mistaken identity or there are more people than just Sloan Jordan and Warren Parish who seem to walk the earth without a soul.

Along with Detective Nathan McNamara, Sloan and Warren travel south seeking answers to the biggest mystery of all: determining who—or what—they really are.

But they stumble into a sinister web of lies and crime more heinous than they ever imagined. And the only truth this brave trio is sure of, is they’ll be lucky if they make it out alive.
