Former FBI sniper Bobby Dodge finds his world shattering when he’s accused of shooting the wrong man during a high-stakes hostage situation. The victim is a decorated police officer, and the eyewitness is none other than Catherine Rosemont, the very woman Bobby painstakingly rescued from the clutches of a serial killer years ago. Now a detective, D.D. Warren is thrown into the maelstrom, tasked with unraveling the truth behind the seemingly perfect shot gone horribly wrong. As D.D. digs deeper, she uncovers a disturbing web of secrets connecting the past and present, a conspiracy that threatens to expose not only the dark underbelly of the city's elite but also the fragile peace Bobby and Catherine have desperately tried to build. With Bobby's career and freedom on the line, and Catherine's testimony potentially damning him, the investigation spirals into a heart-pounding race against time to expose a killer who will stop at nothing to bury the truth, forcing D.D. to question everything she thought she knew about heroism, justice, and the deadly precision of a single bullet.
