'There's always a price in protecting what you love.' The mysterious murder of a prominent businessman. The hunt for a woman who seems to vanish into thin air. Detective Carter Burnes arrives at the scene of a seemingly impossible crime. With poison suspected as the cause of death, no traces of the main suspect, and no witnesses, there are no leads for him to follow. Detective Burnes must use all of his experience and skills gained over the course of 25 years in the police force to solve the case. Elle has been out of the game for nearly two decades. She's grown bored of the safe life. She misses the rush of a completed contract, of holding a life within her own two hands. Will she throw caution to the wind, and risk everything she's built over the last 30 years or will she stick to what she's grown used to for the sake of protecting herself, her business, and everything she loves?
