So, when a missing person's investigation exposes a link to Liv, Ridge vows to bring her home, hoping for a second chance with the Bureau's most valuable asset. As they rekindle their relationship, an enemy from Ridge's past looms dangerously close. And when Ridge's sister is abducted, Liv makes the ultimate sacrifice, placing herself in the crosshairs between a corrupt psychic intelligence operation and an ex-agent with a score to settle.
