Emma Lawson must race against the clock to rescue a kidnapped child and stop a killer whose master plan only begins with murder.

The body shot and killed in the early morning hours by the Sacramento River would have been an easy case for Detective Alibi Morning Sun to solve if only his prime suspect weren't already in jail. Across town, California's youngest lead government ethics investigator Emma Lawson is enjoying a day off to help her best friend, Kate, open a new business when amidst a hail of gunfire, Kate’s teen son, Luke, goes missing.

Over a harrowing forty-eight hours, as Alibi gathers new evidence to determine the identity of the riverside killer and Emma desperately searches for 15-year old Luke, the two investigations collide. At the heart of both is a kidnapped three-year old girl and a diabolical plot with stakes Emma could never have imagined. Will Emma and Alibi be in time to bring the girl and teen to safety and to stop a calculating killer whose plan threatens all that Emma holds dear?

A cold-blooded killer is on the loose in California's capital--and only a kidnapped child could hold the key to derailing his diabolical plan.

When Emma Lawson and her best friend, Kate, decide to leave their high-stress jobs in the rough-and-tumble world of Sacramento politics, they look forward to launching their new business: the Rainbow Alley Preschool. But their plans are shattered when their most high-profile enrollee--Vivian Lange, the California governor's 3-year-old daughter--is kidnapped during a private tour at the school, along with Kate's 15-year-old son, Luke. Kate is shot during the melee and is left clinging to life.

Locked away in a remote room with Vivian, Luke tries desperately to find a way to contact Emma and reveal their whereabouts. But without a single lead, Emma has to rely on the analytical skills she honed in countless political battles to trace the missing children. As she draws closer to the kidnapper's lair, Emma begins to piece together clues that point to a cache of sordid secrets and a decade-old cold-case murder with motives reaching into the city's dark underbelly.

Over a harrowing forty-eight hours, trapped in a web that grows more tangled by the minute, Emma races against the clock to stop a killer whose master plan only begins with murder.
