Struggling with a broken relationship, credit card bills, the FBI's inaccurate profiling computer, and a band of street thugs, lieutenant Jacqueline Daniels works on a serial murder case alongside her binge-eating partner, Herb.

Several million bucks, stolen from the mob, all caught on video, with no chance of redemption. Now one man must face the entire Chicago Outfit, a group of hardened Mafia enforcers, a psychotic bookie, the most dangerous hitman on earth, and Detective Jacqueline Daniels. His name is Tequila. And he likes those odds.

Hoping for a break in light of her fiance's recuperation from botulism poisoning and a deadly criminal's suicide, Chicago Police Department lieutenant Jacqueline Daniels finds her life thrown back into turmoil by the activities of a band of murderous vigilantes.

Lt. Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels has seen humanity at its most depraved and terrifying. Luther Kite is humanity at its most depraved and terrifying. He's committed unthinkable acts. Taken human life for the sheer pleasure of it. Each is the best at what they do. Luther wants a challenge, and sets his depraved sights on Jack. But with a baby on the way, Jack is at her most vulnerable.
