Synopsis

--First place winner of the 2017 Mist Awards--

Every 107 seconds another victim is sexually assaulted.
Sixty-eight percent of sexual assaults go unreported.
Ninety-eight percent of rapists will never see the inside of a cell.

Eden Summers was just another statistic. Too afraid to speak out, too afraid to seek justice. But justice comes in many forms. Justice as unethical as the crime itself, justice the city's vigilante gladly delivers with a blade through the offender's chest and an offer Eden can't refuse.

While the masked man is determined to serve justice where justice is due, Detective Parker Yates is just as determined to keep Eden safe from harm's way and as close to him as he can. But as feelings between Eden and Yates become all too real--too dangerous--Eden has to choose where her loyalties lie; with the man behind the mask or the man behind the badge.

But Eden can't deny it; the influence of the masked man is intoxicating. Roles reverse. Predators become prey. The prey becomes predatory. Yet, Eden isn't sure she's willing to play her part in the man's twisted game.
