About This Audiobook
When a congressman's body is discovered on a Portland bridge, FBI Special Agent Ava McLane teams up with police detective Mason Callahan to track a killer whose methods grow increasingly brutal. As more bodies surface across the city, the investigation reveals a pattern that stretches back years, forcing the partners to dig into cold cases while racing against time to prevent the next murder. The mounting pressure tests both their professional partnership and budding romance, while Ava struggles with personal demons that threaten to derail her focus when she needs it most.
