Murder hides behind mercy's mask.

Eleven days after Deputy Justice Hall secretly ends another reign of terror, Elmaeder County Sheriff’s Office swirls with silent questions. The abrupt halt of murders puzzles everyone, especially the sheriff, who suspects Justice’s involvement, straining their relationship.

Will she be his next target?

Needing to regain trust, Justice jumps at a case involving a suspicious death at a retirement home. What begins as a routine inquiry spirals into a complex investigation. Anomalies at the home hint at a sinister undercurrent, challenging Justice’s detective skills more than ever.

Especially when another resident turns up dead.

As Justice uncovers more about the home’s dark secrets, the case tests the limits of his moral compass. The deeper he digs, the more he must confront the blurred lines between right and wrong, justice and vengeance.
