A cold case has just been assigned to Dan Pardee, a field officer with the newly formed Missing and Murdered Indigenous People’s Task Force. Rosa Rios, a young woman of Apache descent and one-time rodeo star, vanished three years ago. And as it becomes clear that Rosa was just one victim of a serial killer, Dan knows he's running out of time to catch an elusive predator who’s proven capable of getting away with murder.

The man calling himself Charles Milton prowls the rodeo circuit, hunting young women. He chooses those he believes are the most vulnerable before he strikes. For years, he has been meticulous in his methods while leaving no evidence of his crimes. Indigenous women have become his target of choice, knowing law enforcement’s history of ignoring their disappearances.
