Miren Triggs

New York, 1998, Thanksgiving parade. Kiera Templeton vanishes among the crowd. After a frantic search all over town, someone finds a few tufts of hair next to the little girl's clothing. In 2003, the day Kiera would have turned eight, her parents, Aaron and Grace Templeton, receive a strange package at home, a VHS tape showing one minute of Keira playing in an unfamiliar room.

When investigative journalist Miren Triggs is sent a photo of a missing girl, it’s the first promising lead in a decade long cold case that continues to haunt her family. Miren is instantly intrigued by this new clue. Could it be the first step in finding the missing girl – and could Miren be the one to do it? Before she has a chance to follow the trail, though, she’s called to report on a shocking murder. A crucified body has been found in the suburbs of Queens. Miren is torn between the crimes of past and present. But could it be possible these cases are linked?

A fifteen-year-old girl is found crucified in a suburb on the outskirts. Miren Triggs, an investigative reporter for the Manhattan Press, unexpectedly receives a mysterious envelope. Inside: a Polaroid picture of another gagged and bound teenager, with a simple caption: "GINA PEBBLES, 2002”. Miren Triggs and Jim Schmoer, her former journalism professor, follow the trail of the girl in the image while they investigate the crucifixion in New York. They will be led deep into a religious institution with strange rituals, and immersed in a dark secret that, if revealed, could change everything.
