Larry Milsap is a good cop.

At least he thought so until he met Melissa Nelson, a rape victim that appears to know more about how his job is done than he does.

When Larry appears at the crime scene, it looks like an open and shut case--eyewitnesses and fingerprints.

But as Larry continues to investigate, something doesnt ring true.

A violent criminal with a knack for evading justice.

A beautiful victim with a secret to hide.

Between them stands one good cop, torn between justice and the law.

This rape case is an exception: The victim is more than willing to testify.

And theres abundant evidence to put the suspect behind bars.

Just one thing bothers Detective Larry Millsaps.

The unfolding investigation unearths a brutal track record on the part of the suspect .

and a stunning revelation of Melissas own haunting past that could do far worse than destroy her credibility.

Caught in a deadly conflict between the ironies of the law and the demands of his Christian convictions, Millsaps finds himself protecting Melissa from a psychopathic stalkers lethal game of cat-and-mouse .

even as evidence collects that could send to prison not an inhuman criminal, but the woman Millsaps has come to love.
