Twelve known victims.

That’s how many they could prove.

Silas Vane is thirty-seven, heavily tattooed, dangerously intelligent and devastatingly attractive—the kind of man who can hold your gaze a little too long and somehow make you forget you’re sitting across from a serial killer.

Almost.

You’ve spent three sessions opposite him in maximum security.

Three sessions trying to understand the man behind twelve murders.

Dark eyes that miss very little.

A wickedly intelligent mouth.

A body hardened by years behind bars.

And an unsettling ability to make reinforced concrete and armed guards feel less like protection than they should.

You’re supposed to be studying Silas.

Lately, you’ve begun to suspect he’s studying you too.

Then, halfway through your third session, the alarms scream.

A coordinated prison break tears Blackridge apart. Security systems fail. Officers lose control. Cell doors open.

And you’re trapped inside.

Silas is still restrained across the table from you.

He knows what those alarms mean.

He knows what’s coming.

And he knows exactly what men like these can do when nobody is watching.

There’s just one problem.

To survive, you may have to set Silas Vane free.

No cuffs.

No guards.

No bolted table keeping those tattooed hands safely on the other side.

Just you and a gorgeous serial killer who has recently started finding you very, very interesting.

Twelve people have already discovered where Silas Vane’s fascination can lead.

You might be thirteen.

The safest place in Blackridge may be at his side.

The most dangerous place may be exactly the same.
