How does ten million dollars disappear after a narcotics deal ends in a deadly shootout? Hartford detective Dan Shields searches for the money, but he soon comes face to face with the gun-toting thug who'd nearly killed him six years ago. With vengeance in his blood, the detective attempts to bring down his nemesis, resorting to tactics that almost cost him his badge. He'd never been ordered off a case...until now. Having avoided suspension, Dan investigates the discovery of a body found in a swampy grave on private property. Knowing this dead man had been killed months ago, and he'd been buried in a local cemetery, the detective is puzzled by this bizarre crime. How did this displaced corpse end up in that hole, and who would have committed such a heinous act? Dan starts his own digging, and he's suddenly thrust back into the hunt for the missing cash as these two, seemingly unrelated events, intertwine into one explosive mystery. The savvy detective puts himself in harms way as he uncovers the truth...a truth no one could have foreseen.
