Part of FBI Thriller, book 7
First published 2003
FBI agent Dane Carver stares at his identical twin's body in a San Francisco church. Father Michael Joseph has been brutally killed, and Dane teams up with fellow agents Savich and Sherlock to track down the murderer. Their only witness is Nick Jones, a homeless woman who saw the crime but refuses to reveal her true identity. Dane becomes her protector when it becomes clear she may be the killer's next target. But Nick carries secrets of her own and someone else wants her dead. The investigation leads from San Francisco's streets to Los Angeles television studios, where a new show connects to the murders in unexpected ways. As Dane, Savich, and Sherlock close in on their suspect, time runs short. The killer strikes again, and the agents must solve both cases before more people die. Dane fights not just for justice for his brother, but to save a woman whose mysterious past threatens to destroy them both.
