Moriah Dru’s weekend off with her lover, Lieutenant Richard Lake,
is interrupted when Atlanta juvenile court judge Portia Devon hires Dru to find two sisters who’ve gone missing after
their foster parents’ house burns down.
An ex-cop, Dru established Child Trace, Inc., after leaving the
force. Judge Devon sees to it that Lake is assigned to head the police investigation, because Dru and Lake together have a
habit of solving cases.
After questioning the neighbors, the couple realize the abduction of the girls
is more than an ordinary kidnapping. Dru learns that in the past eight years two other foster children from the area
have gone missing. The investigation turns up a snitch who tells Dru he’s heard that a secret sex organization, with
members named after chess pieces, is bound for Costa Rica with two girls. The chase is on to stop the kidnappers before they
escape the country.
