After working up the courage to contact Gwendolyn Lord, Cameron Winter finds himself immersed in a heaven-sent passion. When Gwendolyn tells him about a true-life "locked room mystery", Winter is compelled to investigate.
In Tulsa, Oklahoma, Owen McKay suddenly went mad and killed his wife and child. Locked in a cell and monitored on video, he was discovered dead from a projectile fired into his head. Then, another mysterious death, just like McKay's, takes place in Connecticut and both murders seem linked to a sinister billionaire who once clashed with Winter's old mentor, the Recruiter.
Winter's past and present are coming together in a dangerous conspiracy. And though Winter desperately wants to escape his career as an assassin, his love for Gwendolyn is deepening quickly and he will do anything and kill anyone to protect her.
