HE'S RUNNING FROM THE MOB…
She's running from her past…
Can they endure each other long enough to stop a killer?

Imagine GAME NIGHT meets KNIVES OUT.

Through fate -- or a temporary misalignment of the stars -- Willow Ball and Cooper Chain cross paths for the first time since college. Sparks fly, but not for the right reasons.

The ex-lovers stumble over a dead body. The discovery fractures a family, but it's the killer's calling card that leaves everyone chilled to the bone.

Attacks ensue, chaos ruptures wedding plans . . . Through it all, how can Willow and Cooper make sense of the deadly trail?

And then someone emerges from Willow's past -- and it rocks her to the core. Could he be connected to this string of murders?

It's been 18 years, 7 months, and 21 days.

The torment can last only so long.


The past might provide the breadcrumbs to end this nightmare, but Willow and Cooper may not live long enough to see it through.

Can the snarky crime-fighting duo stop the killing in the name of mercy? Or will they be the final victims?

Get MERCY now!
