A case of mistaken identity.
A K-9 to the rescue.

Park archaeologist Violet Hoyt's wilderness search for a missing family's remains takes a deadly turn when a gunman mistakes her for someone else. The discovery of a grave of skulls reopens a cold case, and someone is determined to keep the truth hidden. With the help of K-9 handler Maverick Shaw and his human-remains-detector dog, Wolf, Violet must find the final family member -- and evade the masked man who has targeted her. Soon Violet learns a shocking secret: She has a presumed dead twin sister who may still be alive, and now they're both in danger. Can Violet and Maverick expose a conspiracy before this Christmas becomes their last?
