Summary:Florida investigator Markus Novak's life derailed when his wife, Lauren, was killed in the midst of a case the two were working together. Two years later, her murderer is still at large. Novak is sent to Garrison, Indiana to assess a cold case that he's certain his boss has no intention of taking. Ten years ago a teenaged girl disappeared inside an elaborate cave system beneath rural farmland. Days later, Ridley Barnes emerged carrying Sarah Martin's lifeless body. Barnes has claimed all along that he has no memory of exactly where or how he found Sarah. Tired of living under a cloud of suspicion, he says he wants answers. Soon Novak is made painfully aware that if he has any chance of returning to the life and career he left behind in Florida, he'll need to find the truth in Garrison first.
