Detective Samuel Barron is no stranger to the gruesome realities of human cruelty. However, when he takes on the case of a body discovered by the water-a murdered exotic dancer with her eyelids and lips surgically removed-he is thrust into a maelstrom of lies and deceit. The stakes escalate dramatically when Barron learns that the victim is the daughter of a Senator. As the investigation takes unexpected turns and more victims with similar mutilations emerge, Barron finds himself unsure of whom to trust and baffled by the extent of the corruption, which seems to climb alarmingly high up the power ladder. Can he unmask this sadistic killer before more lives are claimed on his rapidly shrinking timeline? And will he survive long enough to make a difference?
