Although Detective Quint Hawk determines Trev is innocent, it does nothing to assuage Trev's fears. While Quint sets out to discover who's responsible for the murder, Trev is befriended by Dr. Zack Kendall. As Zack helps Trev deal with what happened, the two men begin to bond. At the same time, artist Clay Richardson takes Trev under his wing, after discovering that he is a talented artist. Evidence leads Quint to a theory about the murder and who is involved. With the help of Trev, Zack, Clay, and Officer Lou Hernandez, they come up with a plan to catch the villains. With all that is happening, can the growing attraction between Trev and Zack survive before the criminals take them out of the picture ... permanently?

“Holy shit!” Zack couldn’t help laughing. “Nice to know I’ll have a career in counterespionage, if I ever give up my day job. Okay, let’s get you home so they can do what they’re paid for and keep you safe.”
