"Most people draw what they love. I draw what haunts me."
Elaine is a forensic artist who reconstructs the faces of the dead. She lives in a world of shadows, charcoal, and cold cases. But her life shatters on a rainy night when she witnesses a professional hit from her studio window.
She saw his eyes. She saw his face. She saw the perfect, cold precision of a killer.
Arthur was supposed to leave no witnesses. Known as "The Ghost" within the city's deadliest Syndicate, his silver silencer has never missed a mark. But when he corners the fragile artist in her loft, he finds something he didn't expect: A woman who doesn't flinch at the sight of his blade. A woman who sees the broken man behind the monster.
Instead of pulling the trigger, Arthur steals her.
Now, Elaine is a captive in a gilded cage, caught between a man who might be her executioner and a passion that feels like a death sentence. As the Syndicate hunts them both, Elaine must decide: Can she paint a soul back into a man who only knows how to destroy? Or will the blood on his hands eventually stain her heart?
