The body of a woman found in front of Nordby City Hall has a message for Emma Frost carved into the skin. Behind this ruthless murder stands a ghostly figure that likes to play childish games. Soon, this killer brings a reign of terror to the small Danish island—and especially to the life of Emma Frost. While Emma's personal life is in a mess, she also has to hunt down a cruel predator who seems to be targeting people with serious mental illnesses. It's spring break in Cocoa Beach, and evil is lurking everywhere.

Things are going well for Emma Frost, for once. She has a sweet boyfriend and has just finished a new book. Her daughter Maya is doing well in high school and even her special-needs son Victor is thriving and playing with his new best friend, the strange girl who fell from the sky. But soon, a murder shocks the island of Fanoe when a woman is found dead in her bed with no apparent signs of having been killed. But as they find out she died by drowning, and more deaths like it begin to occur around the peaceful island, Emma finds herself following signs that lead to her own front door.

We all know that high school reunions can be a daunting and, sometimes, horrifying experience. Well, for Emma Frost, that is exactly what it becomes when she is invited to meet with all of her old classmates at a desolate hotel in the most northern part of Denmark. Soon, she will learn that there was more to this reunion than just them catching up on old times, as a dark secret from their mutual past is revealed. Fasten your seatbelt as Willow Rose takes you on a crazy and very surprising ride.
