Summary: The FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit has amassed a database of unsolved cases. Individual abductions and murders of boys spanning multiple states over several years sends up a red flag. Is there a connection other than age? Are these truly random? Or the work of a serial killer?
Supervising Agent Dean Winchester, Forensic Psychologist and Criminologist for the FBI's Adolescent Victims Unit (AVU) leads the team that solves the most baffling child-based cases. When a host of missing boys are discovered, Dean leads the team in solving their murders. Victims found with odd items and at varying levels of decomp have the team reeling, but Dean’s made his reputation untangling the obscure. A new victim found with the same unusual items, sets the clock ticking.
Can Dean’s team find the murderer before they strike again? Dean’s dedication and ability to solve some of the worst cases, carries a heavy personal price, too often landing him at the bottom of a bottle. As more victims are discovered, Sam Wesson, his partner, and his Chief, Rufus Turner, worry about the effect of the case on Dean. Can he stay out of the whiskey-soaked hole that quells the horror of the cases he faces and solves?
