You never forget your first case.

Officer Walter O’Brien is called to a murder scene on his first night with Detroit PD. A terrified young woman has bludgeoned her attacker with shocking skill. 

She is also brilliant escape artist. Her flight from police custody makes the case impossible to solve and, for Walter, impossible to forget. 

His fascination with the missing grey-eyes woman quickly approaches obsession. And when Walter discovers that he’s not alone in his search, only one thing is certain…

The string of murder didn’t begin in his home city - but he’s going to make sure it ends there.
