When a confidential informant is found murdered and then a witness is executed— with a note taunting Assistant DA Colm Truesdale stapled to his forehead—Colm vows to hunt down the killer, no matter the cost. But as he dives into the investigation, a far more dangerous threat emerges: a ghost from his past, a highly motivated psychopath who has spent years spinning an invisible web designed to destroy him. Every lead Colm pursues draws him deeper into the trap, blurring the line between hunter and hunted.
With his career, his freedom, and perhaps his very life hanging in the balance, Colm must outmaneuver a mind as ruthless as his own. Can he expose the truth before the noose tightens? Or will the prosecutor become the one in cuffs—or worse, in a body bag?
Fresh off their New York Times bestselling success with The Color of Death, Trey Gowdy and Christopher Greyson deliver another electrifying page-turner that plunges deep into the twisted psychology of a ruthless killer—and into the heart of the relentless prosecutor determined to bring him down.
