Her seven-year-old son is in a coma in another hospital - and the police suspect her of attempting to murder him.

When Michael decides to reject an assignment, he knows he must run for his life. One makes a living by killing, the other would kill to survive. And soon their paths will cross..."--Provided by publisher.
