Detective Felix Blythe has never failed to close a case. This time, something is different.
When a man is found dead on a quiet street in the early hours of the morning, Felix and his partner, Detective Andrea Mallory, are handed the investigation of their careers - one that pulls at threads neither of them expects: old grudges, old debts, and secrets buried far longer than either detective realizes. Every suspect breaks. Every confession checks out. And somehow, none of it adds up to the truth.
"We're not looking for someone who lost their temper anymore. We're looking for someone who's been waiting for the right moment for a very, very long time."
Neither of them knows how close that moment already is.
