Mars Bahr and Nettie Frisch’s first assignment in the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension’s Cold Case Unit is the 1984 abduction of a young woman working alone at night in a rural Minnesota convenience store. The last sight of Andrea Bergstad is a fuzzy image on a surveillance camera.  Then she disappears, without a trace, for 19 years.

Mars works with retired Redstone Chief of Police Sigvald Sampson to bring the cold case back to life.  What they find reveals a deeper and darker conspiracy than anyone suspected.  A conspiracy that ultimately puts Mars and the most important people in Mars’s life at risk.
