Publisher's Synopsis
Nearly losing his life when his best friend's house explodes, Peter Shaw is tormented by his need to find out who is behind not just his near-death experience, but a series of violent crimes that threatens those closest to him: his wife, his best friend, and his best friend's only child. Despite his best efforts, the one person who can help him most side-steps his every attempt to solve the crimes she seems to know too much about. As those around him fall victim, 'Pete' and his former partner, and best friend, retired Detective Jim Swartz, drive unswervingly toward the discovery of the menace that threatens their city and everything they hold dear.
