When Holly Frey's caregiver duties end with her father's death, her glamorous older sister sweeps her away to a completely different environment -- Dark Lake, an isolated celebrity community in the Indiana Dunes. The sisters have barely arrived when Holly discovers that this area is also the hunting ground of a notorious serial killer. The Butcher Knife Murderer is a fiend who preys solely on women. Local society revolves around Holly's astrologer brother-in-law, so she is thrust headlong into relationships with a number of intriguing -- and suspicious -- personalities. Holly is drawn deeper and deeper into these people's lives and problems and becomes a target for the serial killer. To survive, she has to build on the hard lessons her past life taught her and adapt quickly to her present situation. But Holly has strengths that no one else knows about. She has already coped with one dangerous madman -- her father -- and knows what signs to look for. The challenge will be to spot the warnings in time and make the right decisions that will save her and save those she has come to care for.
