Startling connections between a 10-year-old cold case and a string of brutal killings lead Detective Shane Scully to a sinister government conspiracy in this latest thriller. Every two weeks, a serial killer beats then shoots Vietnam vets in the back of the head, tossing their bodies in the river. Into this explosive mix comes another killing that Shane believes is a copycat. After FBI agents throw him off the case, Shane and his wife go outside the law and deep undercover to unravel a murderous plot with criminal connections high up the ladder of political power.
Investigating the murders of several homeless Vietnam veterans, detective Shane Scully and his partner stumble on a death that suggests the work of a copy-cat killer, in a case that is further complicated by a ten-year-old unsolved murder.
