A bond broken by tragedy -- reborn as a deadly obsession.

In the Lower Ninth Ward of New Orleans, Jo-Jo and Katie grow up bound by friendship and shaped by hardship. When Hurricane Katrina tears through the city, it also tears them apart -- Jo-Jo evacuates with her family, while Katie is left behind to survive the storm and its aftermath alone. Both girls lose everything, but their lives take sharply different paths.

Years later, New Orleans is once again gripped by fear. A serial killer is stalking the city, leaving a trail of brutal murders that echo unresolved pain from the past. Detective Padget Ellington and her partner race to uncover the truth before the body count rises -- but the killer has become dangerously fixated on Padget, blurring the line between hunter and hunted.

As the investigation deepens, buried secrets surface, revealing how childhood trauma, abandonment, and survival can twist lives in unexpected ways. From the devastation of Katrina to the shadowed streets of modern New Orleans, Cradle to Grave is a haunting story of friendship, loss, and the long reach of the past -- where some wounds never heal, and some sins refuse to stay buried
