Synopsis
A missing surgeon. A powerful couple targeted. A secret rising to the surface. When a renowned cardiothoracic surgeon disappears in Highmill, New York—no witnesses, no struggle—Detective Logan Fletcher and his K9 partner, Riggs, catch the case. It should be routine. It isn’t. The victim is married to the CEO of the region’s largest hospital, a man with influence… and enemies. Psychologist Dr. Skye Johnston is brought in to profile the abduction. She and Logan aren’t just partners—they’re in a fragile relationship neither of them wants to jeopardize. But this case pushes every boundary they’ve tried to protect. As they dig deeper, a long‑buried secret tied to the couple’s past comes to light—one someone is willing to kill to keep hidden. What starts as a missing‑persons investigation turns into a hunt driven by revenge, precision, and a threat closing in fast. With time running out, Logan and Skye follow the trail together—professionally, personally, dangerously close. Because this isn’t just about finding a missing woman. It’s about what happens when justice turns personal… and the cost paid by the people trying to stop it.
