A new case comes barreling into the D&K agency when they least expect it which has Doyle and Kord exploring the steamy byways of leather and kink in Philly.

It's election season for KinkLink, the largest regional leather and fetish organization in the Philadelphia area. But someone is trying to kill the candidates.

Doyle directs the investigation and assigns Kord an undercover role to attend events as a person looking to find his place in the kink and fetish world. Kord, at first reluctant, becomes eager for this assignment and begins his search with the pups and handlers group. Here he encounters one of the pups who is running for president, a tough, do-whatever-it-takes competitor. Kord finds himself learning not only about the pups but all about himself, as well.

For his part, Doyle investigates openly and hopes that between his work and Kord's they will find out what's going on and stop it. During Doyle's investigation, he falls under the spell of the hot and seductive Mick O'Connor, another presidential candidate. While enchanted by O'Connor, Doyle learns a lot about his own desires and needs, too.

Suddenly another candidate is attacked and killed. Yet another is beaten. The investigation moves into high gear while fear grips the community. But will Doyle and Kord find the culprit before more candidates are murdered? Can they solve the case and keep their relationship intact?
