German Detectives

Eine leichte Brise wehte das blonde Haar über ihr Gesicht, und ihre glasigen Augen starrten ausdruckslos in den Sonnenuntergang. Die Gestalt wirkte klein und verloren neben der großen Eiche. Sie war zu jung, um zu sterben. Als die Leiche einer Frau an einem Baum hängend in ihrem Vorgarten gefunden wird, ist die frisch zum Dienst angetretene Detective Morgan Brookes als erste am Tatort. Für Olivia Potter kommt jede Hilfe zu spät und kurz darauf entdeckt Morgan auch die kalten Körper von Olivias Mann und ihren Töchtern im dunklen Keller, die Gesichter mit einem Tuch bedeckt.

Nach einem brutalen Angriff wird der leblose Körper einer jungen Frau an deren Bett gefesselt gefunden. Detective Morgan Brookes ist nicht vorbereitet auf das, was sie bei der weiteren Durchsuchung des Hauses entdeckt–und welche Erinnerungen an ihre eigene Kindheit dies hervorruft.
