pasts who are in mortal danger.
When she was twelve years old, Kirra Mandarian's parents were murdered
and she barely escaped with her life. Fourteen years later Kirra is a
commonwealth attorney back home in Porte Franklin, Virginia, and her
goal is to find out who killed her parents and why. She assumes the
identity of E.N.--Eliot Ness--and gathers proof to bring down the man
she believes was behind her parents' deaths. She quickly learns that
big-time criminals are very dangerous indeed and realizes she needs
Dillon Savich's help. Savich brings in Special Agent Griffin Hammersmith
to work with Lieutenant Jeter Thorpe, the young detective who'd saved
Kirra years before.

saves herself from a would-be kidnapper at Davies Hall in San Francisco.
Worried for her safety, Emma's entire family joins her for her next
performance, at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.. Sherlock and
officers from METRO are assigned to protect her, but things don't turn
out as planned...
