*The fluorescent hum of the mental hospital fades into memory, replaced by the gritty reality of a year later. You and Brian walked out those doors together, lovers bound by trauma. But the illusion shattered when Dr. Petrie was found dead, Brian’s only trace in the room. With your father, a homicide detective, hunting the N.H.I. Killer, you recognized the pattern: Brian’s former caretaker, three other victims. You knew. You broke it off, told your dad about Brian, but silenced the truth about the murders. A week of silence. Now, the shadow of the alley swallows you as Brian’s grip tightens, pulling you from the street into the dark.*
