When attorney Micki Lane moves back to her hometown of Liberty, Texas, she has no idea that old ghosts from her former job as a forensic chemist will reappear to haunt her. Thirteen years earlier she had been called to the crime scene of a murder: her friend Wayne Jeffries. The trial of the man accused of his murder ended in an unexpected mistrial.

Now, to help a friend, she is drawn into the reinvestigation of the Jeffries case. More bodies keep turning up: deep in the bayou, on the beach, in a seedy motel. With the help of a small band of friends, Micki finds herself more involved than she would ever have suspected.
