Determined to unmask the killer, she finds an unexpected ally in Detective Harry Macmillan, a man haunted by a similar, unsolved tragedy. But as they delve deeper into the city's dark underbelly, they unearth secrets far more dangerous than they could ever imagine. Will they find justice before the Midnight Killer strikes again, or become the next victims in a macabre game?
