Gwen Proctor won the battle and freed her children from the clutches of her ex-husband, serial killer Melvin Royal, and his gang of psychopathic accomplices. But the war is not over yet. Not when Melvin escaped from prison. And Gwen got chilling news… Her retreat at Lake Stillhouse had become a trap. Gwen entrusts her children to an armed neighbor and goes hunting with the help of Sam Cade, the brother of one of Melvin's victims. But what she's up against is worse than anything she'd feared in her wildest dreams—an elaborate and cruel game with one goal: to destroy her. Gwen closes in on her prey with only her rage and desire for revenge to lean on. And one thing is clear. One of them will die.
