One, two, Davie's coming for you... As sheriff, I live by a code of honor. A code that doesn't include defiling my little sister's best friend, no matter how badly I may want to. But then the bodies start piling up, turning my small town into a graveyard for a madman. And Trixie, the girl I'm not supposed to want, disappears. Screw the code. Trixie is mine, and there is nothing I won't do—no rule or law I won't break—to get her back. Even as I fight to save my girl, I’m forced to face a horrible truth: Evil has come to Theophilus. And we may not be strong enough to defeat it.

Most people would call the cops if they found someone trying to rob them blind in the middle of the night. But since half the police force is made up of my nosy older brothers, I took matters into my own hands. Then the little thief called me Daddy, and I was hooked. And when my brothers’ investigation clashes with Wylde’s traumatic past, I’m determined to protect her. Even if it means turning my back on my own family.

Life is a series of choices, and I always seem to make the wrong ones. When my overbearing, overprotective brothers kept me from becoming a cop, I became a private investigator instead. And when fate thrust two hot, dominant men into my life, I knew exactly who I wanted. But my choices have caught up to me, and I’m fighting for my life against a madman. The choices I make now won’t just determine my career path or who I allow in my bed. Now my choices are life… or death.

One, two. Davie, I’m coming for you… I couldn’t protect them. The women he murdered, the ones he nearly destroyed. Trixie. Cricket. Wylde. My wife. But I will make him pay. For every life he has taken, for every minute of pain and fear he has caused my family. I will find him. And I will end him. And no one, not even the two people I’ve pledged my life to, can stop me.
