A decaying dead body with its head missing is found in the walls of a newly opened, fancy, coffee shop. The first order of business, for PI Jade Pearson, is to identify the body. But, it is no easy task.
Jade suspects that it is one of the business owners. Almost every store in the strip mall where the coffee shop was located was having financial problems. Was it possible they did it out of jealousy to put the new coffee shop out of business?
When someone fires gunshots at her, right by the strip mall, Jade wonders what was she getting too close to that warranted a chance at taking her life.
Then a second and a third headless body is found and Jade knows she must find out who's behind these gruesome killings before any more bodies show up.
