With a reputation for solving one of the most prolific crimes in Ember Ridge, Detective Seth Riordan should feel on top of the world.

But there was a price to pay for catching the bad guy.

Now, Seth’s life is fragmented, and there’s only one constant.

Death.

He has another killer to catch. This time, he has a shot at redemption. Everyone in his life thinks he’s jaded and lost to the dark world of criminals, but Seth knows the truth of it. There are bad people lurking in well-lit corners. They’re not always who you expect.

And this new murderer?

He’s twisted. A modern-day Bluebeard. A wife-killer.

Seth might have lost his own wife to the distance his career put between them, but he’ll stop at nothing to protect those who can’t protect themselves, no matter the cost.

From where he’s standing, he’s already lost everything he has to lose.

Or has he?
