The sole survivor of a brutal crime, Reece Gilmore has been on the run, desperately fighting the nightmares and panic attacks that haunt her. She doesn’t intend to stay in the sleepy town of Angels Fall one second longer than she needs to, despite its friendly – if curious - inhabitants, and the irresistible attraction of local writer Brody. However, on a hike into the mountains she witnesses a couple having a vicious argument that culminates in murder. By the time Reece finds Brody and brings him to the scene, both killer and victim are gone.
Faced with a lack of evidence, the authorities in Angels Fall find it hard to believe Reece’s story. After all, she's a newcomer in town and yet has already gained a reputation for being jumpy - maybe even a little fragile. But when a series of menacing occurrences makes it clear that someone wants her out of the way, Reece must put her trust in Brody – the one person who does believe her - to find the murderer before it’s too late…
