When Peter Burke of the Vice Collar division agreed to acquire the contract of slave-turned-conman Neal Caffrey, he'd really only wanted him for his knowledge of illegal slave trade. Neal, however, is determined to give the agent more bang for his buck to ensure that he'll never have to play prison slave again, eventually kindling a fire between them they didn't know existed.

Theirs was a friendship built against the odds; a trust between them that was as fragile as it was twisted and yet it had taken root where it should not have. Between a man of law and the man who defies it, they had built their own set of rules. Peter knows that, what he doesn't understand is where it went wrong. [Set after the series finale.]

Neal has a bad malaria attack, but the timing is bad. He'd rather run and leave everything behind. Peter has to face his own demons and make up his mind. Will he save his friend and, even more important, finally stop acting like a jerk? (Rethorical question...) First chapter focuses on hurting Neal, second one on both men's emotional turmoil and the last one offers some comfort.

Neal isn't feeling well but keeps it to himself during the Christmas dinner at the Burkes, until he collapses.
