The aloof Livia Lone is a detective with the Seattle police. And she is good. Really good. Specializing in sexual crimes, she has an unerring eye for the horrific desires of the perpetrators. What none of her colleagues know is that as a child, she and her little sister Nason were sold by their parents and ended up in America, abused by the traffickers who smuggled them into the country. Since the sisters were separated, it has been Livia's mission to find Nason. She never, ever forgets that one ultimate goal while she puts criminals behind bars as a police officer. Or directly under the ground. When she finally has a lead that could take her to the men who held Nason and her captive, she realizes she is up against a powerful adversary. She has no choice: if she wants to take him on, she must face the challenges ahead.
