When the kidnappers call, its not for ransom, but for a promise to punish Cole for past sins he claims he didnt commit. With LAPD wrestling over the case and the boys estranged father attempting to take control of the investigation, Cole vows to find Ben first. But Coles partner, Joe Pike, knows more about this case than he has said. Pike lives in a world where dangerous men commit crimes beyond all reckoning. Now, one of those men is alive and well in L.A.-and calling Elvis Cole to war.
