Magnetic, fearless Fin Kahill has dedicated his life to ridding the world of its most vicious serial killers. Fin is used to roaming the earth freely - not getting stuck in sleepy Clare Point.

Yet just as Fin edges closer to solving the murders, he discovers Elena may not be exactly who, or what, she appears...
