When a baby's skeleton is discovered during an urban renewal project, DNA databases identify the child's parents. Michael, now a judge, claims that he and Margo were teenage "friends with benefits." But Margo, a housewife, claims Michael raped her repeatedly, resulting in a still-born baby that she buried in secret when she was only seventeen years old. Then, a second skeleton-this one an adult-is found at the same building site. As Police Detectives Bartholomew Jones and Helen Martin peel away the layers hiding the truth behind the possible homicide, they discover evidence linking several players in the second case to the baby's case: Is Margo possibly the killer of the unidentified man? Why did her estranged sister help to bury the man's body? Why is the victim's skeleton missing its little finger?
A child's body has been found, drained of blood, after the eve of a Blood Moon. Assigned to find the killer, police detectives Bartholomew Jones and Helen Martin first uncover a secret which destroys Jones' marriage. Then they discover a secret cult of sanguinarians whose thirst for adrenochrome-rich blood has claimed victims in several neighboring communities. As a new Blood Moon approaches, Jones and Martin hurry to identify the cult leaders and save an unknown potential victim. Who is the cult's Archdruid? Who is its next intended victim? Can the bloody ceremony be stopped in time?
