A puzzling death, two dead lawyers, and another close call for Kate.

When prominent defense attorney Madison Lombardi drops dead on the street outside her office of a perceived heart attack, no one pays much attention . . .  Except for her husband. 

When a second attorney, her law partner, drops dead a week later in almost the exact same spot, more people begin to pay attention, including police chief Wesley Johnston. 

Homicide detective Kate Gazzara, much to her dismay, is assigned what appears to be little more than a case of coinciding medical events. 

However, appearances can be deceiving, and Kate remains unconvinced by the notion of mere coincidences.

Thus begins an investigation that will take all of Kate's formidable skills to solve and bring her within an inch of losing her life. 

Not once, but twice.

Dancing with death again could be the end for her.
