In a city of shadows, the deadliest predator hides behind the screen. NYPD detectives Carrie Blake and Tom Elway have built their careers catching the most dangerous killers, but their newest case might break them. Someone is taking out Manhattan’s elite in high-security homes with precision so advanced, it seems inhuman. The only leads? A defiant hacker with a grudge and a billionaire tech mogul whose security empire might be protecting more than it should. As Carrie and Tom race to uncover the truth, the killer targets Carrie, turning the investigation into a deadly game of survival. To stop a murderer who’s always one step ahead, they’ll have to navigate lies, betrayal, and the limits of technology—while risking everything, including each other. Justice isn’t guaranteed when the enemy controls the game.
