To catch a killer targeting her, a detective must trust her life to the one woman who already shattered her heart. Homicide detective Thea Gallo is brilliant, relentless, and now, she’s the target. A ghost from a past case is dismantling her life piece by piece, leaving a trail of bodies and personal threats. With the department compromised, she has only one option left: seeking help from Morgan Valerius, her ex-lover and a retired special forces operator. Forced into proximity at a remote safe house, old wounds and desires ignite as the killer closes in. Trusting each other is the only way to survive, but surrendering to their explosive chemistry might be the thing that finally breaks them.
