A string of gruesome murders haunts the banks of the riverside, a killer that believes they are god seeks to punish those who have sinned. Appointed to stop them is courageous Detective Sofia Moreno. The murders are unusual, but the work is not, until a decision from high up suddenly throws Sofia's world into chaos.
Revered above all others, Private Detective Aldrik Wolff is assigned to the case. Cold, calculating and somewhat narcissistic, the 'world's best detective' is instantly unlikable, though few would dare to admit it. The pair strike up an instant mutual hatred, and a stray word could be all it takes to tear them apart.
Detective Sofia Moreno has an important decision to make. Rivalry can consume you when you've got something to prove, but is it worth your life?
