Summary
"On the way to Isle of Palms off the South Carolina coast, Tempe receives a call about two decomposed bodies wrapped in plastic sheeting and bound with electrical wire. The details are identical to those of an unsolved case Tempe handled in Quebec years earlier. She travels to Montreal to gather evidence, while health authorities in South Carolina become increasingly alarmed as a flesh-eating contagion spreads. So focused is Tempe on identifying the container victims that, initially, she doesn't register how their murders and the pestilence may be related. But someone is protecting a dark secret--and willing to do anything to keep it hidden"--Page 4 of cover.

Chillingly, Tempe recognizes many details as identical to those of an unsolved case she handled in Quebec fifteen years earlier. With a growing sense of foreboding, she flies to Montreal to gather evidence and convince her boss Pierre LaManch to reopen the cold case. She also seeks the advice -- and comfort -- of her longtime beau Andrew Ryan. Meanwhile, a storm of a different type gathers force in South Carolina. The citizens of Charleston are struck by a bacterium that, at its worst, can eat human flesh. Thousands panic and test themselves for a rare genetic mutation that may have rendered them vulnerable. Shockingly, Tempe eventually discovers that not only are the victims in both grisly murder cases related, but that the murders and the disease outbreak also have a common cause?"--Amazon
