Detective Sloane Hart knows the city's darkest corners-because she lives in them. When a string of murders targets women in the sex trade, each victim branded with a mysterious mark, the case strikes too close to home.

Her sister is spiraling. Her captain wants her off the case. And the bodies keep coming.

Caught between duty and obsession, Sloane navigates a web of secrets, temptation, and dangerous alliances-including a guarded club bouncer with a soldier's past, a charming stranger who sees too much, and a partner with whom she shares a buried history.

As the lines blur between justice and revenge, Sloane must decide how far she's willing to go to stop a killer who always seems one step ahead.

In a city built on silence, someone is watching. And this time, it's personal.
