Justice has a body count, and Kara Greims keeps it herself.
The body in the cold-storage locker was strangled with her own necklace, then carved up after she was already dead. Officer Rodriguez wants Kara Greims to find out who did it. The catch: the police can't touch the case.
Good thing Kara isn't the police.
She's the last Free Judge of the Vehmic Court-the vigilante Neo Los Angeles knows only as Nemesis. She also has three identities, a skull on her desk that won't stop offering advice, and, honestly, the magic is the easy part. The hard part is the dead bodies.
To hunt a killer moving through the city's wealthiest circles, Kara builds a brand-new face - socialite Tiffany Nichols-and walks in wearing a smile and a knife. What she finds is staggering: a locked-room murder at a black-tie gala, a confession to fifty-five killings across twenty-two years, a suspect polite enough to surrender without a fight.
Case closed. The bodies don't stop.
Catching one monster just means meeting the next. Two killers, one mask. Can Kara expose the second before the city's elite run out of throats, or is she about to learn what happens when a Free Judge gets it wrong?
