Sheriff O'Rourke thought his biggest headache was facing an opposition candidate in the upcoming election—until bodies start turning up in Black Creek with their necks mysteriously broken. When the sheriff ventures into the backwoods to investigate, he stumbles upon a beautiful young woman living alone in a desolate place, but a supernatural encounter leaves him shaken and his credibility in tatters.

As Ray Kent's feelings for the beautiful and mysterious artist deepen, his investigation draws him closer to a terrible secret she's been guarding beneath her ever-present scarves and turbans.
