In a sleepy little parish just outside of New Orleans, murder is no rare occurrence. Sergeant Lance Knight has a pile of unsolved homicide cases on his desk. On the surface, none seem to be connected. The victims are all men with money or power. An investment banker, a lawyer, and a local politician. They don't socially run in the same circles. Lance can't find a connection. Working closely with coroner Gina Goodwin, Lance and Gina discover a pattern. Three unrelated things the bodies all have in common - a string of lethal connections. Is it just a coincidence, or is it something more? Things heat up when Lance realizes he's getting close to finding the killer, and everything spirals out of control. Can he piece it together before it's too late?
