Summary
In the aftermath of the events that shattered her sense of self, SSA Vivian Contreras can barely recognize herself in the mirror. Slowly consumed by the revelations from her past that unraveled after her high school best friends were murdered, Vivian’s world is now a labyrinth of grief, anger, and an unsettling darkness that clouds her perception of morality.
As the BAU cases become increasingly brutal and deeply personal, Vivian’s fragile equilibrium is further tested by her now public relationship with Dr. Spencer Reid, whose own past casts shadows over their connection. With every grisly investigation and personal obstacle, Vivian's decisions reveal how far she’s willing to go to confront the chaos inside her.
This is exactly what Spencer unsuccessfully tried to warn Vivian about; now it is too late for him to protect her. The decision is hers; will she emerge as a stronger version of herself? Or will she succumb to the unhinged and chaotic forces threatening to consume her?
