Kane Kulpa is an ex-con with a conscience. Vincent Bayonne is the troubled detective that put him away.
Now, cat and mouse are thrown into an uneasy alliance when their streets are stalked by a vicious serial killer targeting lonely men. As Kulpa and Bayonne realise they can trust nobody but each other on their hunt for the murderer, the dangerous and corrupt Central City teeters on the edge of all-out gang warfare.
In a damaged town where it’s hard to tell the guilty from the innocent, how do you catch a killer?
A hard-boiled crime thriller that’s perfect for fans of Michael Connelly, Dennis Lehane, and James Sallis!
