Nova Monroe is the city's ghost, the faceless predator whispered about in newsrooms and morgues alike. For years, she has perfected her art of killing, precise, disciplined, untouchable. The police chase shadows, the media spins theories, but no one has ever come close to uncovering her. She is in control. Always.
Until him.
Zane Crawford is chaos wrapped in charm, a newcomer whose murders are messy, theatrical, almost... personal. He doesn't care about hiding; he cares about being seen. And when he carves a message into his victim's skin, a message meant only for Nova, he forces her into a game she never agreed to play.
At first, she's irritated. Then intrigued. Then dangerously entangled. What begins as a battle of wit and territory twists into obsession, attraction, and something neither of them can name. They strike a deal: a no-strings-attached connection built on lust and the thrill of knowing the other's darkness. But obsession has sharp teeth, and love is the most dangerous weakness of all.
A psychological, enemies-to-lovers thriller where obsession blurs into romance, trust is a weapon, and the only question that matters is: who will survive the other?
