Als ein brutaler Doppelmord die Stadt Sawmill, Oregon, erschüttert, benötigt das FBI Autumns Spezialkenntnisse. Die Tochter des getöteten Ehepaars, die gerade ihr eigenes Leben beginnen wollte, verschwand in der Tatnacht. Wird Autumn bald klar, welchen Plan der gesuchte Täter verfolgt: Er will Paare bestrafen, die ihr Ehegelübde brechen. Die Zahl der Opfer steigt, und der Killer geht immer größere Risiken ein. Was als Suche nach einem neunzehnjährigen Mädchen begann, wird zu einem Katz-und-Maus-Spiel.

Charlize hat alles zurückgelassen, von dem sie dachte, es wäre ihre Zukunft: ihren Job, ihre Wohnung, ihren Verlobten. Nur ihren Brautstrauß und die gefühlt dreiundzwanzig Schichten Tüll ihres Kleides hat sie mitgenommen nach Oak Harbor. Den Ort, der vor zehn Jahren das erste Zuhause war, das sie kannte. 431 Tage hat sie hier verbracht, bis ein schreckliches Ereignis das kleine Städtchen erschütterte. Jetzt ist sie zurück, obwohl Charlie sich geschworen hatte, nie wieder zurückzukehren. Und sie trifft gleich auf den Jungen, dessen Herz sie mitgenommen hat, als sie damals gegangen ist.

Seit dem furchtbaren Anschlag, der das Schicksal so vieler Menschen in Oak Harbor verändert hat, läuft Rachels Leben auf Stand-by.

Erst der attraktive, warmherzige Coast-Guard-Offizier Mike bringt etwas in ihr zum Erwachen, das sie längst vergessen glaubte – das Verlangen, mehr zu sein als das Mädchen, das immer nur funktioniert.

Posie Rose wollte als Stern am Hollywoodhimmel aufgehen. Ganz sicher wollte sie nicht zurück in ihre alte Heimatstadt, die vor zehn Jahren von einer schrecklichen Gewalttat erschüttert wurde.

Nachdem sie aber am selben Tag sowohl ihren Job als auch ihre Wohnung in LA verliert, bleibt ihr und ihrer Schildkröte nichts anderes übrig, als buchstäblich zurück zu kriechen an den Ort, der sie schon einmal fast umgebracht hätte.
