Lacy Stoltz has already put her life on the line for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct, but she’s about to take on her toughest case. She meets Jeri Crosby, a woman who is so frightened she uses a number of aliases. Jeri’s father was murdered twenty years earlier in a case that remains unsolved. But Jeri has a suspect whom she has stalked for two decades. Along the way, she has discovered other victims.

Her target is brilliant, patient, and always one step ahead of law enforcement. He is the most cunning of all serial killers. He knows forensics, police procedure, and most important: he knows the law better than anyone.
