It is three days before Christmas, and two young girls have disappeared from the local academy. This hasn t happened for fifteen years, since Rouge Kendall s twin sister was murdered. The killer was found, but now Rouge, twenty-five and a policeman, is forced to wonder: Was he really the one? Also wondering is a former classmate named Ali Cray, a forensic psychologist with scars of her own. The pattern is the same, she says: a child called out to meet a friend. The friend is the bait, the Judas child, and is quickly killed. But the primary victim lives longer...until Christmas Day.
Rouge doesn t want to hear this. He s spent the last fifteen years trying to avoid the
memories: drinking alone, lying low, washing out of school and a promising first career.Now he might abandon law enforcement too but something won t let him, not yet. A little girl has haunted his dreams all these years and he has three days finally to put her to rest."
