Before long, the world will see their beauty - and his vengeance.

Both victims are women known to Detective Selena Alvarez. Each of them is wearing a piece of her jewellery.

But this killer already knows too much about the mistakes Selena has tried to outrun. The secrets of her past are coming to the surface, one by one. And soon a madman bent on revenge will show her just how much she has to lose...
