An FBI agent is tasked with solving a gruesome murder. But when a second body is discovered in another part of the country, her assignment morphs into a hunt for a man on a killing spree.
A photograph is found with a headless, handless body, and the case is turned over to FBI Special Agent Raychel DelaCruz. Recognizing the woman in the photo, the 29-year-old rising star of the agency gets a sinking feeling in her gut. This is no ordinary homicide. No. This one's personal.
When a second body is discovered, DelaCruz shifts her focus. Serial killer.
Her investigation then leads to a darker secret, one that makes her blood run cold. She learns that SHE is the motive behind the mad man's sadistic acts.
With an innocent life hanging in the balance, and the clock ticking, DelaCruz races to save a third victim from a grisly fate. And she knows if she fails, another person will have died for what she did a decade ago. Or rather...didn't do.
