Caitlin O'Brian is a most effective detective in the McGee Agency, but she does not always play by the rules... or the laws. She is angered at the core by a spate of kidnapping and trafficking of little girls. In her mind, the law is inept, and its enforcers are emasculated. There is no more time to follow that correct route, and she needs a new way. She knows all too well about a pair of influential twins who ignore the law and escape detection. Is she right in what she seems to be doing? Is she legal? Is she even safe? This book carries on from The Twinning Factor, and the story would be incomplete without Caitlin's fraught decision.
