A killer is leaving messages. And this time, they’re meant for him.

Once a journalist, Dante made a mistake that allowed a killer to slip through his fingers—a failure that has haunted him ever since. Now, a new murderer known only as the Knight in Gale is recreating that nightmare… one body at a time. Each victim is chosen with precision.
