New York City Police detective Dave Strauss is haunted by the one case he couldn't solve. A schoolgirl vanished off the streets of Brooklyn, with only a trail of blood and a series of untraceable phone calls from ''the groom'' hinting at her fate. Now the cold dark night has engulfed another young girl ... but this time she is part of Dave's family. He and his wife, Susan, know fourteen year old Lisa has not run away, and they know her disappearance is not just a tragic coincidence. And once the first phone call comes, they know she's not alone.
