John Reese and Joss Carter survived the downfall of HR and are trying to figure out if they can ever have a so called normal relationship. The problem is, Carter is on the trail of a serial killer and Reese has a new number, leaving little time for relationship drama. Throw in a blast from someone's past, and John and Joss just might have more than they can handle.

John and Joss are expecting a child and have settled into a sense of normalcy, at least for a homicide detective and a presumed dead ex-CIA operative. The calm doesn't last long, however, when while working a number, they are drawn into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Third in the Re-Crossing series.

What if after Rikers Joss and John had never reconciled? What if Carter accepted a position with the FBI and left New York and her work with a certain vigilante behind? Two years later, Carter is being sent back to New York to work a case linked to John, forcing her to come face to face with her past and feelings she thought she had buried.

Another "what if" alternative to The Crossing.
