Carving a swath of terror across the Federation, one planet after another, no one knowing who's next.



A serial killer the likes of whom hasn't been seen in centuries. A pretender who has outdone the master. Fifty planets. The dead are screaming for vengeance and only Rivka and her team can hear their cries. The Singularity. The Magistrate and her crew.



How many more must die before the killer can be brought to justice?



The battle of wits has begun, and only one can survive. Win or die trying.



Rivka has to dig deeper than ever before into her investigative skills to figure out who's next and how to stop the one masquerading as . . .



Jack the Ripper.



Magistrate Rivka Anoa is the legal eagle you want on your side. No better friend. No worse enemy.
