The past doesn't stay buried… it waits.
At ten years old, Sanford Crow uncovered the darkest truth a child could face: his father was a serial killer.
It was 1969, and Sanford dreamed of becoming a detective. Following instincts he didn’t yet understand, he investigated his own home, and what he discovered shattered his world.
Twenty-five years later, Sanford is a divorced, recovering alcoholic raising his eight-year-old daughter and working as a crime scene cleaner, while trying to outrun his past.
When a new string of murders begins to mirror his father’s crimes, Sanford is dragged back into the nightmare he’s spent decades trying to forget—one that forces him to question his memories, his past, and even his own mind.
