From the back cover

Commander Grant leads a rescue team in the snowy mountains, where human remains are found half-buried in a snowdrift. He warns his adopted son Brandon to cancel a hiking trip, but when a teammate suggests calling his own son Leo, Grant snaps that the boy deserves to rot out there. What Grant does not know is that the shattered bones belong to Leo, and that he has failed to recognize his own flesh and blood.

Detective Miller finds signs of blunt force trauma and suspects murder, and the search turns up only a single leg bone. A watch Grant once gave Leo is found, yet he hands it over without a flicker of recognition, dismissing Officer Jenkins's doubts. When the school calls about Leo's disappearance, Grant brushes it off as another lie, saving his tenderness for Brandon instead.

As the search widens, Grant still cannot see the truth lying at his feet.

Inside the book Opening excerpt

After reporting it to the police, his first call was to my adopted brother, Brandon, to tell him to cancel his hiking trip planned for a few days later.

One of his teammates, Mike, reminded him, "Hey, Commander Grant, maybe call Leo too? Check on him?"

But Dad just snapped, his voice laced with venom, "That damned demon! He deserves to rot out there!"

What Dad didn't know was that I was already dead.

Those broken, shattered bones lying before him? They were my body.

But he, my own father, didn't recognize his flesh and blood.
