AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'A mother is murdered in an apparent robbery. A young woman is raped and beaten in a home invasion. Chicago Detective Alicia "Berg" Raymond doesn't believe in random crime and is certain both cases are more than they seem–but can she trust her instincts, or is she too distracted by the feelings she has for former partner and new boss? For Berg, the need for justice burns deep and fills the emptiness where therapy and relationships fall short. She's certain the husband knows more than he's willing to admit, but the trap to catch the killer is the loophole that sets him free. The rapist is caught and sent to prison, but when Berg gets closer to the family devastated by his depravity, their behavior doesn't add up. As Berg fights to prevent another murder, she crosses the line between hero and villain–and there's no turning back.'
