Barely escaping with her life, Ann succumbs to shock and is unable to recall exactly what happened that cold, wintry day in the Cogan. Ann's own guilt gnaws at her. It's because of her that Rachel is dead. She's the one to blame She's the one whose escapades tarnished the Fairchild name, and she's the one who disobeyed her father and lied. Ann's new suitor, Army Lieutenant Phillip Matter, hunts for the killer. Driven by guilt and shame for not saving the girls from harm that day, he grows increasingly more frustrated as he scours the Cogan for a killer he knows is still there. The Lieutenant thought it would be easy to find the killer. He was mistaken. A promise that Lieutenant Matter wishes he'd never made turns his happy life with Ann miserable and threatens to take away everything he loves and lives for if he doesn't fulfill it.
