They say time heals all wounds. Tessa Micah is snatched from her bed in the middle of the night. She has a complicated past and is the widow of a decorated cop, so the list of suspects is long. Retired detective, Skylar Wyatt, is determined to find her and honor the promise he made to his partner—to protect and care for his wife should anything ever happen to him. When people connected to Tessa start dying, the cops don't know who from her past is targeting her, or if it has something to do with her dead husband's cases. With time running out, and more bodies falling, vocations will be questioned, futures reassessed, and not everyone will survive. ↝ Trigger warning - mature content, issues of sexual assault/abuse, violence ↜
