Nina

For years, Detective Nina Rossi has been your shadow, your worst nightmare. Corrupt to the core, she's used her badge as a weapon to track you down, bending rules and breaking laws to get what she wants. Now, after evading her for so long, she's finally caught up to you. There's no escape this time from the woman who's made your life a living hell—and seems to take perverse pleasure in every minute of it.
