No one said coming home would be easy. But for Dante Renaldi, it's murder. Before the Special Forces hero has even unpacked his bags from twelve years of active duty, he's embroiled in murder corpses bearing the brutal trademark he's seen only once before.

The last time Detective Anna Pallino saw Dante, they were in love. Now, he's connected to a string of fresh homicides and a past assault where she only survived because of him.

More than anything, Anna wants to trust Dante. But as the bodies and the coincidences stack up, Anna will have to decide: Is the man she owes her life to the very same one who wants her dead?
