Detectives Jill Garvey and Dan Lee are no strangers to violent death, but the senseless and brutal killing of an affluent woman, her body found in a decaying urban neighborhood far from her home, shakes them to the core. Clues don’t add up and no possible suspects seem quite right. They dig ever deeper into the background of the victim until the story of a horrendous death begins to evolve into the story of a tragic life… and a portrait emerges of a profoundly troubled woman.
But in that life story, will they find the answers they need to bring a vicious killer to justice?

After several years of working solo, he’s been assigned a new partner; and together they must deal with another unsolved assault and robbery that tests their ability to work together...
