    John Lyon's was an untouchable news anchor until he breaks down in a fit of sobbing on live national television. Now John has to redeem his image, following a strange story of abducted children in a quiet West Virginia town. He quickly runs into a blind doctor that is on the unusual side and finds out more than he bargained for. A great, fun read for those who enjoy their suspense and gore.
