✦ Synopsis

A Friday night screaming match turns deadly.Levi Riley and Jayda Bloom broke up over a year ago, but still live together in the same small house with their little girl, Chamomile. It's a tense arrangement not helped by Jayda's drug use and her new boyfriend's frequent visits. One Friday night, an argument turns physical and the tensions boil over into bloodshed.The following morning, a neighbor finds the front door ajar, the house trashed, and a puddle of blood soaking into the bedroom carpet. Detective Darren McDaniel and his partner, Brent Vanderwyk, quickly determine it's a case of domestic violence turned deadly. But both Levi and Jayda are missing - as is the little girl.As the detectives plunge into the hunt for a suspect, a body and a missing toddler, the case becomes increasingly bizarre. The couple have ties to money laundering, drug trafficking, organized crime, and even darker secrets. As much as Levi and Jayda hated each other, plenty of other people had reason to want either or both of them dead.With their suspect list steadily growing, and the missing toddler's time slipping away, McDaniel and Vanderwyk race against the clock, piecing the puzzle together, hoping to save little Cami before her time runs out.
