When the city’s latest serial killer turns his torment, agents Pierce Quincy and Rainie Connor realize the hunt takes a personal turn. With his daughter’s death ruled an accident, Quincy will risk everything to uncover the truth. The only one willing to help is another former partner, Rainie, who must face her past and step straight into the killer’s line of sight. Scott‑psychopath’s mind‑games meet the trait of revenge and fear, culminating in a final confrontation that could turn the hunter into the next victim.
Quincy’s relentless pursuit and Rainie’s experience make a deadly duo, but the killer’s unique ability to manipulate and feed on vulnerability tests their limits. The suspense builds in each twist, forcing the reader to question how far one will go for justice—and the safety of those who love them.
