But when evidence from the case appears to connect with Maria’s long-unsolved murder, Cross is drawn back into the tragedy that has haunted him for years.

Determined to discover the truth and finally bring his wife’s killer to justice, Cross finds himself facing a case that is deeply personal and increasingly dangerous.
