When the call comes in about a lonely woman found burned to death, Detective Lottie Parker is first on the scene. Her investigation reveals the victim has no family and as a young girl, she was abandoned and hidden away at the Sisters of Mercy Convent. Has something in her tragic past led to her murder? Then Lottie discovers that she had a visitor just before she died. A young journalist, Imelda, had called on the vulnerable woman. Could she have something to do with her death? Lottie's search takes her to the abandoned convent where she can only imagine how terrified the girls must have been. The caretaker tells Lottie that a woman matching Imelda's description had been there a day earlier. But later that day, Lottie is devastated to learn that the caretaker has been scalded to death. Imelda is the only connection between the victims, and Lottie is in a race against time to find her.
