The explosive new masterpiece of suspense from the #1 New
York Times–bestselling author.
LAPD cop Scott James is not doing so well. Eight months ago,
a shocking nighttime assault by unidentified men killed his
partner Stephanie, nearly killed him, and left him enraged,
ashamed, and ready to explode. He is unfit for duty—until he
meets his new partner.
Maggie is not doing so well, either. A German shepherd who
survived three tours in Iraq and Afghanistan sniffing
explosives before losing her handler to an IED, her PTSD is
as bad as Scott’s.
They are each other’s last chance. Shunned and shunted to
the side, they set out to investigate the one case that no
one wants them to touch: the identity of the men who
murdered Stephanie. What they begin to find is nothing like
what Scott has been told, and the journey will take them
both through the darkest moments of their own personal
hells. Whether they will make it out again, no one can say.
