Her dream life of landing the perfect academic job somewhere far away from her small hometown and publishing her first novel is so close to becoming a reality. But first she has to finish writing that book. Oh, and graduate. To do both, she needs her good friend Ben to reciprocate all the help she's given him over the years on his writing.

But when Mel's widowed father starts acting strangely, she is thrown. After chalking it up to a dramatic attempt to manipulate her into moving back in with him, she discovers that he really is suffering from dementia. Now she'll need to stay local to care for him.

The police couldn’t find her dad and neither could the detectives hired by her mother, but now, ten years later, Traci is a super-popular influencer with millions of followers and the money to hire the best detective she can find: Elvis Cole.

A ten-years-cold missing person case is almost always a loser, but Elvis heads to Rancha where an ex-con named Sadie Givens and her daughter, Anya, might have a line on the missing man. But when Elvis finds himself shadowed by a gang of brutal criminals, what began as a simple missing persons case becomes far more sinister, and Elvis calls in his ex-Marine, ex-cop friend, Joe Pike, to even the odds.

As Elvis and Joe follow Tommy Beller’s trail into the depths of a monstrous, hidden evil, the case flips on its head. Victims become predators, predators become prey, and when everyone is a victim, can Elvis Cole save them all? The truth must come out no matter the cost, so Elvis must face the big empty to see justice done.
