Set in the rugged borderlands during the 1980's, Girl out of Darkness is the compelling drama of courageous, resilient women who assert themselves to save what is precious to them: a family, a career, a lover-and at least one of them may have to pay for it with her own blood. When he's called to an upscale home in small town Copperton, Arizona, Deputy Pete Caldwell finds Barbara Pyre dead, the victim of an apparent accidental fall, but he suspects foul play immediately and the chase is on. A World War II veteran and former POW, Pete thinks he's seen every kind of criminal-from heroin mule to armed robber to revenge killer. But then he never thought he'd meet anyone as soulless as Timmy Pyre, a young man with the baby-face looks of a young Paul McCartney and the cold-hearted cunning of Hannibal Lecter.Pete is struggling to adapt to the 'new' sheriff's department of the 1980's, which includes highly capable women and minorities in its ranks. Troubled by a pair of demons from his past, Pete and his team (Deputies Naomi Savage and Cisco Hernández) plod after the killer motive by motive-jealousy, lust, greed-until they realize that a sociopath needs only his own narcissism to wreak the havoc he does. Though Pete's pursuit of justice is noble, it is the tough and resilient young women who finally bring resolution to the chaos that Timmy has unleashed: Deputy Savage and the two girls, Jenny and Sherry, who may actually become Timmy's victims themselves.
