He’s old-school. She’s insubordinate. Together, they’re dumped into the Cold Cases unit—the precinct’s junk drawer of forgotten crimes.
Detective John Stone has the best arrest record in the NYPD’s 43rd precinct, but his methods are as outdated as his wardrobe. Carmen Dehan’s attitude has made her radioactive to every partner she’s had. So when their captain wants them both out of her hair, she hands them the Cold Case files.
First up? A decade-old massacre at a Bronx poker game. Five men dead. One beheaded and castrated. The main suspect? A dirty cop who vanished that same night—along with the victim’s wife.
As Stone and Dehan dig deeper, they’ll uncover a trail soaked in blood, betrayal, and long-buried secrets.
Some cold cases burn hotter than hell. Are they ready to get scorched?
