Clint McCall and rival PI Devon Malone are together again, this time on a case that grows from the embarrassing but minor theft of a friend’s key ring to a series of killings and kidnappings that could include one or both of them before they’re done.

If that’s not enough, life throws in a landlord who thinks his mother-in-law may be trying to kill him, an old enemy coming back around to ask for help, and Clint's daughter worried about a possible stalker.

Will McCall and Malone be able to sort it all out and uncover the twisted fantasies of a powerful madman in time to prevent more deaths, including their own?
