“Homicide detectives Tony and Julia have been partners for over twelve years. Julia is more than just long legs in a pair of Jimmy Choo’s. Tony’s sharp-shooting skills and rugged good looks are a perfect complement to Julia’s quick mind and natural beauty. Not only do they make a great team, they are damn good at their jobs. When Julia is killed in the line of duty, Tony is left to pick up the pieces of his life. Then Julia shows up in his bathroom. As Tony bemoans Julia’s lack of paranormal powers, they team up to solve crime. They will face the most difficult challenge of their careers; a sadistic killer is on the hunt.
