Description
Sometimes you get lucky. And sometimes luck isn’t enough. The body of a murdered woman is found hidden behind an abandoned warehouse in one of Seattle’s grittier neighborhoods. A surveillance camera from a nearby business captures the license plate of a vehicle leaving the scene. A suspect is arrested and identified. Only then does Homicide D.A. David Brunelle realize what they’re really dealing with: a serial killer who finally got caught, but only on the thinnest of evidence. The killer makes an offer. Give him a slap on the wrist and he’ll tell the police about all the other murders he committed and where to find the bodies—solving a clutch of unsolved cases and giving closure to countless family members. Or turn down the offer and risk losing the trial, knowing the killer will be released to murder again. And again. And again.
