He once saved her life. Now he's her prime suspect.

A masked intruder strangles a musician, leaving behind a chilling clue: a macabre letter styled as an employment termination notice. All evidence points to Adrian Pryce, the charming president of the video game powerhouse Taurus Studios.

Detective Lucy Duvall is assigned to the case, but her colleagues in the Philadelphia PD are baffled by her unusually restrained approach. For Lucy, the investigation is personal. Years ago, Adrian heroically saved her—only to break her heart.

As the so-called "Taurus Strangler" claims more victims, Adrian's guilt seems undeniable. With the body count rising and her personal history threatening to derail her career, Lucy must untangle a web of lies and betrayal to expose a diabolical killer—before she receives her own termination notice.

(Second Edition. Content: strong violence and mild sex scenes.)
