New York was Minka’s past.
It was her home, her history, her roots, and her nightmares, all wrapped in one beautiful snow-swept city.
She’s Chief Medical Examiner now. She has her own team, commands a building brimming with intelligent techs, and her work/life balance hardly needs to exist, considering her husband is a homicide detective and in her office daily.
But before she was the woman she is today, she was a girl of just five years old.
Back then, New York was caught in the terrifying grips of a serial killer with a penchant for little girls and zero remorse for the lives he destroyed.
Minka thought that was all over, locked securely in the past.
But a new face is on the news, and an old flame continues to light up her phone in search of one-on-one attention.
Minka was sure the Body-In-The-Bag killer would be her most painful lesson this year.
But the risk of losing her husband is so much worse.
