When a fifteen-year-old babysitter and the toddler entrusted to hercare vanish from their sleepy sub-urban town, Maddy Blake -- like the rest of Taylorsville -- is horrified. When the teenager turns up dead and the baby is nowhere to be found, Maddy's once tranquil life is shattered. Her husband becomes the prime suspect for this heinous crime, having only recently been acquitted of sexual misconduct charges brought by one of his teenage students. Plagued by doubts of her husband's innocence, tortured by a growing attraction to her priest, and disconcerted by the grim strangers to whom she has opened her home, Maddy realizes too late that she is inmortal danger.
