After escaping an abusive marriage, Annie Kessler is starting a new life. She moves to Tacoma, Washington and attempts to put her painful past behind her. Just as she begins to regain a sense of security, old ghosts come back to haunt her. Women around the state are being snatched in broad daylight and murdered. FBI Agent Shane McCann shows up on Annie's doorstep with a startling link to her childhood; the murders are tied to Annie's father, nefarious serial killer, Leon "Alligator" Graves, who has been sitting on Washington State's death row for the past twenty-three years. According to McCann and the FBI, Graves knows who is murdering the women, but refuses to talk until his last wish is granted; he wants to see the daughter he hasn't spoken to for more than two decades. The clincher is that Leon is scheduled to hang in ten days. Annie's life threatens to unravel again. Someone begins stalking her. Terror becomes her constant companion, and she is thrust into the center of a madman's sick and violent game. With only McCann at her back, she has no choice but to face the past she has spent her life running from-and the father she swore she would never set eyes on again.
