In the neon-lit streets of Sin City, where secrets lurk in every corner, I find myself teetering on the edge of a precipice, my every move threatening to plunge me into an abyss of my own making. Haunted by my brother’s murder, I prowl the shadows as a vigilante. When I meet Crime Scene Analyst Johnny Cooper, I find myself drawn to him, torn between the desire for love and an unwavering commitment to my crusade, binding us together in a dangerous journey that could spell both salvation and ruin.

The past year has been chaotic with relationships changing, some falling apart, and oh yeah, I can’t seem to stop killing, even if it’s justified. Ending The Artist’s reign of terror, I expose my dark secret to Detective Dara Waters, but in a surprising move, she accepts who I am and never tells a soul. Marcus Williams is the source behind every problem in my path. All-American killers never get a fairy-tale ending, but this time I plan to finish what I started, even if it costs me everything.

No matter how hard I try, some urges are harder to deny than others. I want desperately to let go of my past, but it’s one of the hardest things I’ve ever faced. Who am I supposed to be if not a killer? A new challenge, a serial killer the media has nicknamed The Artist, threatens to take all of that away from me. The Artist stalks the city of lights for a reason, a tangled web I find myself and my coworkers trapped in, and I plan to make sure he never leaves.

My brother’s murder at the hands of my fiancé created a monster. So, I focus on killers like him, becoming what I hate most in the process. As an assistant coroner at one of the best crime labs in the country, the last thing I need is a relationship, but there is no stopping the strong connection to Crime Scene Analyst Johnny Cooper. I’m struggling to keep my two lives separate. If I’m not careful, I may find myself behind bars with nowhere left to run.
