Rockton, a secluded town accessible only by a treacherous mountain pass, has long been shrouded in mystery and isolation. Its history is steeped in tragedy and whispered tales of violence that have left an indelible mark on its inhabitants. As the snow blankets the town and cuts off contact with the outside world, eerie events begin to unfold, sending shivers down the spines of the townsfolk.
The Missing Daughter:
At the heart of the novel lies the disappearance of Sarah, a young woman who vanished without a trace. Her absence sends shockwaves through Rockton, and her desperate family clings to the hope that she will be found alive. As the search intensifies, chilling discoveries are made, revealing a sinister undercurrent beneath the town's façade.
Dr. Sam Collins:
Enter Dr. Sam Collins, a seasoned forensic psychiatrist who arrives in Rockton to assist the local authorities in their investigation. A man haunted by his own demons, Sam possesses a keen eye for detail and an unwavering determination to uncover the truth. As he delves deeper into the case, he realizes that there is more to Sarah's disappearance than meets the eye.
A Web of Suspects:
Sam's investigation leads him to a cast of enigmatic characters, each with their own secrets and motivations.
