In the 1980's Detective Rourke thought his career was over.
After crossing the line in San Francisco, he's shipped off to Bakersfield, a place that feels less like a fresh start and more like a dead end. Quiet streets. Closed minds. A department that prefers not to ask questions.
But when a series of deaths begins to surface, Rourke sees a pattern no one else wants to acknowledge.
The victims have more in common than anyone is willing to admit.
As Rourke digs deeper, the resistance grows. Leads disappear. Reports get buried. And the closer he gets to the truth, the more it becomes clear:
Someone is watching.
Someone is always one step ahead.
And in a town where secrets are protected and silence is survival, Rourke may already be too late.
Because the killer isn't hiding.
They're waiting.
