β¦ Synopsis
As dusk approaches a small Dublin suburb in the summer of 1984, mothers begin to call their children home. But on this warm evening, three children do not return from the dark and silent woods. When the police arrive, they find only one of the children gripping a tree trunk in terror, wearing blood-filled sneakers, and unable to recall a single detail of the previous hours.

But when a twelve-year-old girl is found murdered in the same woods, he and Detective Cassie Maddoxβhis partner and closest friendβfind themselves investigating a case chillingly similar to the previous unsolved mystery.
