FBI Agent Jessica Cruz's homecoming turns to horror when she discovers that the death she's been assigned to investigate was her childhood best friend Mary Dubois, turning her hunt for a rogue serial killer personal. As she delves deeper into the case, she reconnects with Nick Shaw, a handsome former denizen who's recently returned to claim his significant inheritance: the business empire his father spent his life building and expanding. But their initial spark hits a flash point when Jessica discovers that Nick is still under suspicion for a cold case eerily similar to the town's latest victim. No one's alibi is adding up, and everyone in this small seemingly innocent town suddenly has something to hide, casting doubt on everyone from the sheriff to the man sharing her bed. The devil himself is lurking somewhere in small-town Louisiana's shadowy secrets, and it's anyone's guess where. Can Jessica clear her lover's name, or has she fallen prey to a serial killer's sinister plot?
