Her daughter is the target of evil...
Child welfare officer Holly Summers is deaf, but she has an amazing talent for lip-reading - a talent the police are very happy to call upon in difficult criminal investigations.

The horror begins when the one person Holly is cares about is targeted: her precious daughter...
