Detective Liv DeMarco thought transferring to a new unit would make her problems go away, but they're just beginning...

When bodies start dropping after a string of home invasions, Liv and her partner are called in to investigate. This thief turned killer only steals jewelry, electronics, and cash. But his method of killing varies greatly. Liv's instincts tell her he's after more than just some shiny baubles. The killings weren't opportunistic or unavoidable - they're the real motive behind these crimes, and stealing's just a side benefit.

Now Liv and her partner must find a way to determine the killer's next target. The case leads them to cross paths with someone from Liv's past, someone she thought she'd never protect. But she swore an oath to uphold the law. And no matter who he is or what he's done, he needs her help. Even if he won't admit it...
