Dr. Lauren Beckinsale's first patient started writing letters to a serial killer when she was ten years old, searching for the truth about what happened to her mother.

Now Lauren has a new patient—a drifter with a violent past who was at the same bar the night a man she was seeing vanished without a trace.

He's court-ordered, which means she can't refuse him. He's in her home once a week, which means she can't avoid him. And everything she knows about what he is, she knows as his therapist—which means she can't tell a soul.

So Lauren goes back to the letters. Years of correspondence between a young girl and the convicted killer she believes murdered her mother—searching for the one detail that will tell her how to survive what's sitting across from her. A copycat. A coincidence. Or something worse.

In this house, everyone is hiding something.
