Inhaltsangabe

Los Angeles Police Detective Lena Gamble is held in disgrace by department higher-ups for the explosive way the infamous Romeo case played out, even though she’s still hailed as a hero by her colleagues for catching the killer. As punishment, she hasn’t been allowed to handle a real murder investigation since. Until finally, after eight months, the chief tosses her a case…

Just a body, chopped into pieces and dropped in a Dumpster—gruesome enough to ensure that, once again, the media will be following Lena’s every move…
