Ashton Sinclair is the quintessential gentleman villain – well-mannered, outrageously wealthy and successor to a long line of spectacularly ruthless men. He reigns over the NYC underworld. They say he has no heart, that he will kill with that soft, impersonal smile that rarely leaves his face. They say he lost his soul when his wife was murdered. They are not wrong. He is monster and he is knight, and destiny has its own plan.
