Synopsis

Ten years ago, six-year-old Catalina Mateo hid under the porch of her family home while a knife butchered her mother and a bullet killed her father. Now a rough-sleeping orphan, Cat arrives at the house of Detective Jonathan Stride, pleading for protection. Drenched in the icy waters of Lake Superior, she claims to have narrowly escaped a cold-blooded killer. Strides raw instinct is to protect Cat, whose late parents caseand his personal guilt associated with itstill sends a shiver down his spine. As a result, he takes the troubled teenager under his wing. But Strides partner, Maggie Bei, is not convinced. She doubts the sincerity of this beautiful young streetwalker who has so easily won Strides trust, and now sleeps in his house with a butchers knife under her pillow. As Stride continues to care for Cat, Maggies suspicions solidify, and a single question occupies the void between them: Should Stride be afraid for, or of, this terribly damaged girl?
