A drive-by shooting rocks an affluent suburb, leaving an innocent man dead. A witness to the madness--along with his terrified teenaged daughter--Detective Ty Hauck launches an investigation into what looks like a vicious case of family retribution. But Annie Fletcher, the owner of a hip cafe who's attempting to rebuild her life, saw something that does not fit the bloody scenario. And the truth is a gathering storm of secrets and corruption that could tear through the mansions of the town's most powerful--ravaging a family . . . and pitting Hauck against his own brother.
