Last Winter's Taken

The murder of Willow Danby, a married woman and expectant mother, thrusts Homicide Detective Rachel Hood into a murder investigation and missing person's case as she searches for the baby ripped from Willow's body.

The mysterious undertone surrounding the current investigation forces Rachel to reopen a cold case from the previous year. Yvonne Johnson and Willow Danby couldn't have been more different. Wrong side of the tracks meets white picket fence. The only thing the two women have in common: they're both dead and their infants are missing.

Even with a long list of suspects to interview, alibis abound, and Rachel is no closer to solving Danby's or Johnson's deaths. She worries: where are the children? Rachel's psychic empathy draws her closer to the taken infants, and she suffers from a haunting premonition. But, how can she be their voice when they are too tiny to speak? A single clue left at each of the crime scenes links the cases together and leads Rachel to a mystery dating back to the year 1638.  Her frightening premonition spirals out of control, but she can't track the infants' sobs. 

The sinister murders and search for the missing infants reunites her with occult crimes specialist and psychic FBI Agent Nick Draven. Even with his psychic gift of hypersensitive hearing, Nick can't hear the infants' cries in the night. Then a mysterious enigma is unearthed for the first time in over 372 years and draws them closer to a modern day sociopath, murdering expectant mothers and taking their unborn children.
