Things are changing for Decker.  He's in crisis following the suicide of a close friend and receipt of a letter concerning a personal issue which could change his life forever.  With the prospect of working with a new partner, Frederica White, Amos knows that his new case will take all of his special skills to solve. 

As darkness falls, evil comes to light. . . 

Judge Julia Cummins seemingly had no enemies, and there was no forced entry to her property.  Close friends and neighbours in the community apparently heard nothing, and Cummings's distraught ex husband, Barry, and teenage son, Tyler, both have strong alibis for the time of her murder.  Decker must first find the answer to why the judge felt the need for a bodyguard, and the meaning behind the strange calling card left by the killer. 

Someone has decided it's payback time.
