Home invasions, unexplained murders, and an unstable 911 operator. Detective Rugbee had never seen life so busy as everything bad descended on him at once.

He and Bonner worked to solve the murder of a young girl, but without leads, that proved impossible. Then the home invasions began, starting slow but then they grew in intensity.

When a homeowner died during the attack, Rugbee and Bonner dropped everything to concentrate on the attacks. The citizens of Beachside deserved to be safe in their homes.

During this investigation, Rugbee put Bonner's life on the line inadvertently when he hired an unstable 911 operator. The operator fixated on Bonner from the moment she met him.

She held a gun to his head as he tried to talk her into lowering her gun. Tense moments followed as her finger pulled slightly on the trigger, clearly showing her intentions.

More murders occurred as Rugbee worked to handle the demands of his job. Finally, Jud helped the detectives break the case but not before the killer attacked Rugbee, leaving him for dead in the police department parking lot.

This is a white-knuckle race to the finish for all involved. Does Rugbee survive his injury so he can help arrest the killer or will he have to depend on his team?.
