But when the only woman he has ever loved appears, begging for him to help her, Erasmus finds himself caught between two deadly cases: and his professional instincts tested more than ever before.With mere seconds on the clock, Erasmus must make a choice: put his client’s life on the line, or turn his back on his past. Because there can only be one winner… and the penalty could be death.

Solitary lawyer, Erasmus Jones, agrees to track the missing Stephen down, but quickly discovers that this is more than just a missing person case. Men are being brutally murdered across the city and Erasmus discovers that Bovind, the murdered men and Stephen once knew each other as boys…How long can the past be kept secret?
