While the city's law enforcement and first responders are catching up, Detective Karen Neilsen leads a team into the unknown, discovering ever deeper layers of subterfuge with every step. The looming consequences of failure are too bloody for Karen to consider turning back. Time is too short to allow her to contemplate the possible outcomes of her decisions.
