The body belongs to Harry Langhorne, a man in Witness Protection with mob ties. What follows is a cat-and-mouse showdown between Mickey and a sociopathic woman with a mysterious past who will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. To confront this adversary, Mickey must uncover her true identity and the trauma that shaped her, as well as the reason she has been chosen as the target.
