The twists in the case lead him to believe the FBI may know much more than theyre letting on and Hawkins suspects that one of their agents is deeply involved. As the story unfolds, the FBI solves the mystery but unfortunately for them, so does Hawkins at nearly the same time. The clock races as they try to prevent the next death – whether its a child or the target of Toms vengeance. When its all said and done, the aftermath can only truly be sorted out by God.
