Publisher's Synopsis
Seven bodies are found buried in a shallow grave in an upscale Kansas City backyard. Agent Hank Rawlings and his partner, Beth Harper, are on the next flight out.
In KC, the local medical examiner says the bodies have been opened and something possibly taken from them. Her theory centers on the illegal organ trade. Since Hank worked a similar case years earlier, the medical examiner's line of thinking strikes a chord. As Hank and Beth follow what few leads they have, more bodies are found under similar circumstances a few hours away. The suspect connected to the latest bodies is captured on video and bears a striking resemblance to the man in Hank's past investigation. But that man, one of the most dangerous that Hank has ever gone up against, has been locked away for years-or at least, he should have been.
