With a newly minted detective badge, "Mac" McAllister reports for his first assignment with the Oregon State Police detective division, a gruesome homicide. The victim, a beautiful young woman, Megan Tyson, was brutally murdered only weeks before her marriage. Too many suspects and too little hard evidence keep Mac and his seasoned partner Kevin Bledsoe, scrambling. Bledsoe has a strong faith in God - a faith Mac has no use for until he must come to terms with his own past and the secrets that still haunt him. Can they sort through the lies and alibis before the killer strikes again?
