"At twelve years old, Kirra Mandarian's parents were murdered. She barely escaped with her life. Fourteen years later, Kirra is an attorney in Porte Franklyn, Virginia, and determined to find the killer. She contacts Dillon Savich, who brings in Special Agent Griffin Hammersmith to work with Lieutenant Jeter Thorpe, a young detective who'd saved Kirra years before. Emma Hunt, a twelve-year-old piano prodigy and granddaughter of crime boss Mason Lord, was six when she was abducted and later rescued by her adoptive father, a San Francisco federal judge. She narrowly avoids another abduction in San Francisco, but her attacker escapes. In Washington, D.C., at Emma's performance at Kennedy Center, Sherlock and officers from METRO are assigned to protect her, but things don't turn out as planned... nothing turns out as planned." --
