When Marcella Ewing's body is found at Montauk, Long Island, the strange proof that she was a ""congenital victim"" begins to develop. The men who had known her, temporarily but too well, are a brotherhood of fear and suspicion; there is another killing; her husband terrorizes the community; Alex' and Gen's marriage is almost shattered before the case is closed. A tantalizer.
