It was a crime so brutal, it changed the lives of even the most hardened homicide cops. The Haas family murders left a scar on the communitity nothing can erase, but everyone agrees that convicting the killer, Karl Dahl, is a start. Only judge Carey Moore seems to be standing in the way. her ruling that Dahl's prior criminal recor is inadmissiable rasies a public outcry-and puts the judge in grave danger.
When an unknown assailiant attacks Judge Moore in a parking garage, two of Minneapolis's top cops are called upon to solve the crime and keep the judge from further harm. Detective Sam Kovac is as hard-boiled as they come, and his wisecraking partner, Nikki Liska, isn't far behind. Neither one wants to be on this case, but when Karl Dahl escapes from custody, everything changes, and a seemingly straight-forward case cartwheels out of control.
The stakes go even higher when the judge is kidnapped-snatched out of her own bed even as the police sit outside, watching her house. Now Kovac and Liska must navigate through a maze of suspects that includes the step-son of a murder victim, a husband wih a secret life, and a rouge cop looking for revenge where the justice systm failed.
With nio time to spare, the detectives are pulled down a strange dark trail of smoke and mirrors, where no one is who they seem and everyone is guilty of prior bad acts.
