Catherine Hamilton was a high-class hooker. Now she is dead, shot point-blank in the bedroom of her LA apartment, and the police have laready dismissed it as just another sad case of a client-escort relationship gone sour. But the dead girl's parents won't let the case rest. They've employed Jack Till, ex-LAPD homicide turned private detective, and now he's deciphered a pattern in similar deaths across the states. The cities may be different, but the girls have something in common: they are all pictured wearing the same gold love-token around their necks. What if these murders are not the work of a menacing outsider? What if the killer is the one person these girl's trust? What if he's their boyfriend?
