Detective-Sergeant Natalie Dvorak of the Vermont State Police is confronted with a series of homicides in which the victims are people she might have arrested had she known what they were doing. Has someone decided they deserved to die? The circumstances surrounding the killings bring back memories for Natalie of a time when she was a victim. Can she uncover the plot and prevent more extra-legal executions in a state that doesn’t have the death penalty? When there is no sympathy for the targets of vigilantes can there be justice?
