When the prom queen is found brutally murdered, Sheriff Sharyn Howard recalls that a similar murder occurred on the night of her prom ten years ago. Her father was the sheriff of Diamond Springs and the man he sent to prison for the murder now sits on death row awaiting his execution. But, Sharyn’s convinced there are too many similarities between the two murders and that the true killer is still at large.
Her move to reopen the first case pits her against the community and her mother, who feels she’ll destroy her father’s reputation in the process. But, Sharyn is determined to discover the truth and catch the real killer before he can strike again.
