Just weeks from graduation, popular high school senior Marlys Wohlenhaus is bludgeoned to death in her family's Minnesota farmhouse. Investigators suspect the 18-year-old knew her killer, and though family members report she was distracted in the days leading up to the attack, no one knows what was troubling Marlys. Initially, Marlys' violent ex-stepdad emerges as the number-one suspect. Detectives believe he hired a hitman who mistakenly killed Marlys instead of her mother, but it's a dead end and the case soon goes cold. Fifteen years later, a fresh set of eyes spots an overlooked clue. But cold case detectives will need more to convict the killer. And it will take a mother's love and a TV interview before a sinister rap sheet can deliver justice for Marlys. Initially, Marlys' violent ex-stepdad emerges as the number-one suspect.
