El arma homicida siempre es la misma, una prenda marcada con una cruz. Sobre los cuerpos, una nota: «Su pecado le es perdonado». Ningún otro vínculo parece relacionar las distintas muertes. Sin más pistas a las que aferrarse, Ben Paris no tiene más remedio que colaborar con la distante y prestigiosa psiquiatra Tess Court, quien no tarda en trazar el perturbador perfil de un alma torturada. Pero al mujeriego y atormentado detective le cuesta concentrarse. Está distraído por esa mujer tan fría y calculadora que no para de desafiarle con sus ridículas teorías. No podrían ser más incompatibles y, sin embargo, ninguno de los dos puede evitar embarcarse en un peligroso juego de atracción y deseo que les impedirá ver lo que resulta evidente: Tess es rubia, Tess es frágil, y su nombre aparece en la lista de un hombre que solo tiene una misión: salvarla de sus pecados.
