Chase Churchill has made a new life for himself, hiding from his family's dark secrets under the pseudonym of a graphic novelist, but his past and the terrifying possibilities of the future still haunt him. His father is an insane serial killer, and Chase dreads the day his father's personality will manifest itself in him. Desperate to atone but knowing it's impossible, Chase has kept everyone in his life at arm's length, including Kayne Kennedy, the police officer he loves. But now the murders have started again, targeting people in Chase's life to make him pay for abandoning his family. Chase may have no choice but to sacrifice everything—even his own life—to keep Kayne and everyone else safe from the crazed plans of a madman.
