His own mother long passed, it had been years since Mother's Day held more than a flitting memory for Sheriff Nate Berlinger. That is until a murderer struck, leaving the residents of Blackstone Bay in door-slamming fear. A murder board now stands in the corner of Sheriff Berlinger's office as a constant reminder of the town's first unsolved case. It isn't necessary for Berlinger or any of his team to flip the board--in all their years they've never seen so much blood or been faced with that degree of cruelty inflicted upon another. Each man's memory bank holds a horrific impression of this killer's handiwork. Mother's Day is approaching, and evil has begun to stir.
