Deep in the hills of Appalachia, someone is stealing babies. Without a trace or a reasonable explanation, pregnant women are disappearing, targeted for the precious commodity they carry.
Emma Weston is a modern midwife in the tradition-bound town. Raised in Shelter, she understands the women she's trying to help. And when her best friend seems involved and her own sister becomes endangered, Emma is determined to reveal the truth.
There's only one man she can trust. Though their views of modern medicine clash, Griff Cusak, the new town doctor, and Emma share one thing: a deep sympathy for their patients. Battling resistance from a town locked in the past and an increasing danger from an unknown enemy, the two stumble into a dark world of terror.
