Madison hesitates before hitching her pink tulle prom dress and running as fast as she can into the wilderness. The ripped edge of her skirt snags on a tree root and she falls to the forest floor. As she catches her breath, she hears the unmistakable sound of heavy boots closing in on her. He knows where she is…
When news of a missing limousine reaches Sheriff Jenna Alton and her deputy, David Kane, they fear for the lives of the ten teenagers who were inside and should have been enjoying their prom night. After picking up each passenger from their home, instead of heading to prom, the car turned towards the darkness of the forest around Black Rock Falls. Has there been a tragic accident, or has something more sinister happened to the teenagers?
Hours later, Jenna’s team discovers the bodies of the five boys from the car, and her heart shatters when she realises the girls are still missing. The killer has taken them, and he hasn’t left a single trace.
Jenna knows time is running out for the teenagers when a lifeless body is discovered hanging from the branches of a tree, and another is found laid on a boulder nearby, still wearing her prom dress. Taking in the scene, she spots something that makes her pulse race – the girls’ bodies have been displayed just like on a previous murder case she worked. Could there be a copycat killer on the loose?
With three young girls unaccounted for, Jenna’s team works around the clock in the dense woodland looking for clues before they find themselves under attack as well. Jenna knows one thing for sure—the murderer wants to take as many lives as possible. As she reads the notes on her past case, her heart races with worry about what kind of monster she is about to face. Has Jenna finally met her match? And will the missing girls ever come home?
