It is no secret James Gillies is William Murdoch's arch nemesis. The two have battled head to head more than once, and Gillies is not afraid to use emotional tactics against the Detective.
That's where Breanna Murdoch, William's youngest sister, comes into play.
When Gillies gets wind of Murdoch's family history and of the sheltered sister of his rival, he decides to conduct an experiment of a greater scale than the one he pulled with Dr. Ogden.
What would a brother do to protect his sibling? What would his reaction be when he learns his fragile little sister is tied up with the most dangerous man he knows?
Gillies is more than curious to see what will happen, and is willing to go to any lengths to make sure he conducts the perfect experiment.
Gillies is waiting for results. William is desperately trying to find answers. And Breanna?
She's fighting to stay alive and find reason in a game she never wanted to be part of.

Ashes of the Vow
An assassin with secrets. A man with scars. Love was never supposed to be part of the deal. "We can't," he said, his voice rough but final. The rejection was a physical blow. Humiliation, hot and sharp, washed over me, followed immediately by a fury so intense it blurred my vision. I released his jacket like it was on fire, snatching my hand back from his chest. Of course. Of course. I shoved open the van door, the metal screeching in protest. I practically fell out into the garage, needing to put distance between us, needing to breathe air he hadn't just stolen from my lungs. "Thorn-" he began, his voice following me out. I spun around, cutting him off. The words came out laced with a venom I didn't entirely feel, a weapon to match the hurt. "Don't. Just... don't." I was furious. Furious at him for starting it. Furious at him for stopping. But most of all, I was furious at myself. Furious for wanting it. For leaning in. For letting him make me feel, for one stupid second, like I was cared for. When Thorn-an elite assassin with too many secrets-collapses on the doorstep of Ash Penbrook, she expects death, not rescue. Ash is a powerful businessman with his own scars and a vendetta against the same organization Thorn once served. Forced into an uneasy alliance, their world becomes a battlefield of ambushes, betrayals, and buried truths. Survival draws them closer, but trust is dangerous-and love even more so. As enemies close in, both must decide: are they each other's salvation...or the final weapon that will destroy them?
