begins to suspect a Senate candidate's hiding a secret
mistress—and it's just days before the pivotal
election.

second woman's body is discovered like the first—by a
bridge with no identification—Jake is plagued by a
frenzied media convinced that a Bridge Killer is hunting
Boston's young women.
As the body count rises and election looms closer, Jane and
