description: Veteran cop Elliot Mayo has been around the block more than once. Sex Crimes, Vice, Homicide. In Chicago. You might think he's seen it all. He might think he's seen it all. Then he sees the corpse of photographer-playboy Jack Nesbitt. Nobody is mourning Jack Nesbitt's demise. Especially not Violet Winters. A stunning, tall, snow-blond pediatrician, she'd played beauty to Nesbitt's sexual beast, and suspicion clings to her like the scent on her white silk shirt. Prime suspect or potential victim, either way she poses a problem, personally and professionally, for the tough, vulnerable, smitten Detective Elliot Mayo. The body count meanwhile continues to rise in the most morbidly sexual crime case of Mayo's career. As he pursues a faceless murderer in a sleazy netherworld of drugs and pornography, the treachery moves closer to home. Mayo's young son is assaulted; then his ex-wife's lover, also a police detective, turns up dead. Terror takes root in Mayo's own soul, and not until he confronts the darkness of his buried past can he close the case.
