Casting aside the rule book by which she has lived her life, Captain Patti O'Shay is fearless, but so is the killer. As she is stalked Patti is forced to question all she believes in and match wits with the murderer. Because if she doesn't find the Handyman first, she will become the Last Known Victim.
