Forensics expert Maggie Gardiner and Cleveland detective Jack Renner believe in delivering justice. One follows the rules. The other follows a darker path . . . Three days before a key election, U.S. Senator Diane Cragin is electrocuted on her own doorstep�a shocking twist in an already brutal political race. The obvious culprit is Cragin�s rival Joey Green, a city official who�s had his hand in every till in town for the past twenty years. But after discovering a fortune in cash in Cragin�s safe, Maggie and Jack suspect they�ve stepped into a much bigger conspiracy�and they�d better watch their backs. Dogged by a reporter on the verge of discovering the truth about Jack�s deadly brand of justice, Maggie and Jack plow through a city seething with corruption. As one murder leads to another, and another, their only chance to stop a killer requires trusting each other. Easier said than done . . .
