Synopsis

Carolyn Staley was happy at last. A new life, a new love, even a pretty house with a yard where her little Kathy could play. Then suddenly the yard was empty, and Carolyn's beautiful child was gone, the victim of a stranger's lethal fantasies. The Police are doing everything to find the killer--before Carolyn does. Because a police detective has seen Carolyn's strange look before-- in her daughter's dead and sightless gaze. Carolyn is... different, now. Purposeful, obsessed. She longs for peace again. She longs to slake her vengeance in a single, horrifying act, to sooth her pain in a murderer's agony, to hear his pleas for death... and smile. For she will grant no mercy...
