βPlease Mommy, can Tessa and I go play on the swing by the creek?β the little girl begs, pushing a blonde curl from her eyes. βWeβll stay together, and we promise to be safe.β Hours later, their mother waits anxiously for her darling girls to arrive home with a list of reasons why they are late. But the front door never opensβ¦

Carefully picking through the fragile remains, Katie makes the first of many disturbing discoveries: the girls were not biological sisters. The youngest, Megan, is a DNA match to a kidnapping case years before. The tiny number burnt into her skin the mark of a terrifying killer intent on keeping count of his collection.

As time runs out for Katie to finds the stolen child alive, who will become the next number on this monsterβs deadly list?
