After the scandalous Cronford serial murder case, Christian Tyler found herself in a difficult position. As a coin can't have just one side, 'the local heroine' title was instantly mixed up with the dubious details of the solved crime. The police station was besieged by journalists, and given the captain's ability to communicate with the public, the entire police department was under threat.
That is why she is now standing under the scorching sun with a suitcase in her hands. The Corcante Embassy has requested an investigator to solve the case of the kidnapping of a famous businessman, and who better than a local heroine is suitable for this role? That's how you can hide her away from the media, right?
But the darkness that lives in the captain's head has not completely weakened yet. And in this strange, abandoned place, surrounded by kilometers of forest on the one hand, and the endless ocean on the other, it flares up with renewed vigor. The predator is on her heels, and Christian will once again have to maneuver on the edge of life and death, trying to overcome her demons.
