A killer is at large. And she's next on his holiday hit list. Someone is killing women in Detective Leah Cordon's town--women who jog the same trail as her every day. Leah will do whatever it takes to ensure the case is solved by Christmas. But when details of the crime eerily resemble what's been happening on cattleman Deacon Kent's own ranch, he shows up looking for answers. It quickly becomes obvious that the killer has his sights set on Leah. Can Leah and Deacon discover the criminal's identity before he strikes again?
