On a peculiar peninsula in Washington State, the small town of Point Roberts is haunted by the memory of fifteen murders. For the past twenty-seven years, the town has isolated itself every February to prevent a serial killer from striking again, as the murders occurred exclusively during that month for three consecutive years. This drastic measure has seemingly worked, but the cold case remains unsolved, leading residents to suspect ulterior motives behind the mayor's lockdowns. When a bold seventeen-year-old orphan named Liza arrives, she is initially unaware of the town's dark history. However, her discovery of a mysterious book titled The Fifteen, which reveals shocking details about the killings, ignites her determination to uncover the identity of the Point Roberts Slayer. Liza joins forces with four other misfits, each harboring secrets and connections to the victims. Together, they must navigate the dangers of their investigation while avoiding the murderer’s path to ensure they don’t become victims themselves. This story is a tribute to the moody Pacific Northwest, exploring complex characters who build walls to protect their hearts, and ultimately, it is a profound tale of embracing chosen family and facing the unknown together.
