They say you have 36 hours to find a missing person. When Minnesota detective Sarah Pribek's husband disappears, she goes well beyond the deadline and still can't find him. They'd been married only two months, and he was supposed to start training for the FBI the next day. Not knowing if his disappearance is intentional, or if something terrible has happened, Sarah must investigate the man she thought she knew. Meanwhile, her best friend, partner and mentor, Genevieve Brown, is on leave, mourning the death of her daughter, who's been raped and murdered. The girl had identified her attacker to Sarah before she died, but her testimony was excluded from court proceedings. Layer by layer, Sarah uncovers the truth. As each hour ticks away, her chances of finding her husband alive diminish.
