When Chicago journalist Jessica Knight is linked to a string of odd murders happening across the country, her life takes a turn for the worse.

She is left wondering why her relatives are the ones dropping like flies under the signature mark of a serial killer . . . why she can't stop thinking about Michael Bradley, the appealing detective assigned to protect her . . . and most of all, why, despite being the Button Collector's prime target, she's still alive at all. One thing she knows for certain: the killer is always watching. As the line between truth and deception begins to blur, Jessica crumbles under the dense web of lies she's trying to keep straight—especially once the police start questioning more than just her sanity. With pressure mounting, Jessica must navigate being under the watchful eye of the police—and the killer—while risking it all in a dangerous game to make up for the mistakes of her past.

Her days are numbered...one way or the other.
