F.J. Harmon's Mace Franklyn is haunted by the ghosts of a ruined FBI career and a marriage he shattered, and he wants both back before what's left of his life collapses for good. Then the Bureau throws him a single, razor-thin chance at redemption: a high-profile investigation into a string of coed murders tearing through the University of Michigan campus.
But the case deals its first cruel twist when the medical examiner is his ex — the one person who can steady him or destroy him with a glance. As the body count rises, the politically charged investigation blasts his name onto the front page, turning him into a symbol and painting a bullseye on his back for the mind orchestrating the killings. Mace must catch a killer who is always one step ahead or lose everything he's trying to win back.

"They say write what you know. Mr. Harmon clearly knows his criminal business. This novel takes you through the minds of a serial killer, the detective who is working his hardest to catch him, and an added protagonist in the form of a greasy politician. Every detail was thought out and each new turn kept me urging Mace to catch the killer."
