They took everything. I'll take it back in blood.

Six years. That's how long they kept me caged for something I didn't-

No. Doesn't matter anymore.

Six years I've replayed her screams. Six years I've dreamed of their throats beneath my hands. Now I'm free. And every drag of a cigarette, every swallow of whisky, feeds the monster they made.

I was a cop once. The good guy. Now I'm the nightmare they never saw coming.

Charlee Vega is a complication I didn't plan for. She's a pawn in this rotten game-innocent and in way too deep. But she's the thread that could unravel everything. Or tie me up in knots I'll never escape.

I'll burn it all down to get what I came for. And if she gets in the way? God help us both.

Vengeance has no mercy. Neither do I.
