A surprise birthday celebration for her mother sends Kate Pierce to Atlanta—her hometown. Years have passed since she last visited the city, and she’s still haunted by memories of the violence she endured there. Reluctantly, Kate agrees to go and sets off for a long weekend with family.
News has surfaced of the Fulton County Butcher—a man who is dismembering women and leaving a trail of body parts—and Kate’s childhood neighbor Janine Reilly, now an undercover Vice officer, has gone missing. The police fear Janine has been abducted by the butcher.
