All the while, state Investigator Raquel Roth has never seen a case like this. A criminal who makes major mistakes, yet seems to have a master plan. And is someone pulling his strings? As Roth and her partner race to figure out the madman’s motive, signs point to an even more sinister plan in the works.

If only they can untangle the mystery and stop the disaster in time …
