Eve Duncan is the most sought-after artist in the field of forensic
sculpting. Dedicated to her work ever since her daughter Bonnie was
taken and killed at the age of seven, Eve feels a sense of duty to those
whose lives were lost and whose bones are now in her hands. When a
sheriff in California contacts her with a request for help on the
reconstruction of the skull of a nine-year-old girl whose body has been
buried for eight years, his intensity and investment in the case puzzle
her. But when the ghost of the girl begins communicating with her, Eve
finds herself wrapped up in the case more intensely than she could have
ever imagined. Not since Bonnie has Eve had such an experience, and
suddenly she finds herself determined to solve the murder and help the
little girl find peace. Except that the killer is still out there, and
he knows Eve is on the case. And he won't rest until anything and anyone
that could reveal his identity is eliminated....
