Portland detective Archie Sheridan, the former head of the Beauty Killer Task Force, hunted Gretchen Lowell for years before she kidnapped him, tortured him, and then let him go.

He knows he's the only one who can capture Gretchen―and now he has a plan to get out from under her thumb once and for all. Even if it means becoming her last victim...
