​"Kadang, musuh paling berbahaya bukan mereka yang memegang senjata, melainkan memori yang menolak untuk mati." ​Kelly mengira suaranya adalah satu-satunya hal yang ia miliki untuk menjaga kewarasannya di tengah trauma masa lalu yang kelam.

Ia kini adalah "Sang Viper"—pria dingin, predator puncak di Veridia, yang mengendalikan maut dengan satu jentikan jari. Pria itu mengklaim Kelly sebagai miliknya, melindunginya dengan cara yang begitu posesif hingga batas antara perlindungan dan obsesi menjadi kabur. ​Di bawah bayang-bayang organisasi rahasia dan desingan peluru di Siberia, Kelly harus berhadapan dengan kenyataan pahit: Apakah Elias adalah penyelamat yang selama ini ia tunggu, atau justru dialah alasan di balik semua api yang pernah menghancurkan hidupnya? ​Dalam dunia di mana cinta terasa sama mematikannya dengan pengkhianatan, Kelly harus memutuskan—apakah ia akan tetap menjadi burung yang berlindung di balik sayap sang predator, atau menjadi api yang membakar habis seluruh rahasia sang Viper? ​Hanya ada satu tempat untuk berlabuh, namun dermaga itu berlumuran darah.
