The detectives must pit their skills against interference from the suspect's mother, who is a backroom political powerhouse. Theron's career hangs by a thread after he's suspended pending a hearing. The coerced mayor intends to fire him to derail the investigation. Just when Theron thinks things can't get worse, Orca's daughter is kidnapped. The detectives must battle corrupt politicians and a sociopathic mastermind to rescue Orca's daughter and bring the rapist and murderer to justice."--Back cover
