Quand Maud Graham est appelée à éclaircir le meurtre d'un homme trouvé gisant dans son sang, seul dans son appartement,…
elle ne peut se douter des motifs de ce crime. Qui pouvait bien en vouloir à ce point à cet homme sans histoire ? Avec ses coéquipiers McEwen, Joubert, Nguyen et Rouaix , la détective avance en plein brouillard jusqu'à ce que commence à se dessiner une toile complexe. La victime a été témoin d'une violence qu'on aurait voulu garder dissimulée à tout jamais. Et si l'enquête porte d'abord sur l'assassinat d'un homme, c'est sur la maltraitance subie par des femmes qu'on lèvera le voile en cours d'investigation. Alarmée par le danger qui menace ces femmes devenues des proies malgré elles, Graham se lance sur la trace de l'agresseur. Une poignante course contre la montre démarre.
