While still a child in Redding, California, Shyla Ericson killed her father to end years of abuse. She’d left town shortly thereafter, changed her name, and started a new life, eventually becoming a highly decorated DEA agent. But some history doesn’t stay buried. When Shyla goes undercover to bring down drug kingpin Victor Champlain, the case takes her back to a town that hasn't forgotten her, and to a past she thought she’d left behind. Then, she meets Brennan Miles, a genetically altered kidnap victim, who has been turned into a weaponized super-human. Victor helped Brennan escape from a hidden genetics research facility known only as The Institute, where he'd been held and experimented on for years. In return for his freedom, Brennan now works for Victor as his bodyguard. Shyla is drawn to Brennan's strength, and to his humanity. Even after she discovers his secret — he must have human blood to survive. Shyla knows she can’t take down Champlain by going through Brennan — he’s too strong — and he’s loyal to Victor.

Review
3.5/5
When Shyla was a kid she killed her step father to save herself. She then left town and changed her name to start over. Now as an adult she has finally got her life together.
She is a DEA agent and is being sent undercover. The case takes her back home.
Back in her Home town a genetically altered human named Victor helps Brennan escape from The Institute. In return for the help Brennan becomes Victors bodyguard.
Shyla feels somthing for Brennan. She admires him. The thing is that she needs to get to Victor, but how?
This was a great mystery novel. It was so well written and kept you until the end.
I am not a huge fan of genetically altered stories. It's more just my personal preferences and beliefs.
That being said I did find this story to be really good!
