When an imprisoned killer is freed after only four years, suspicions run deep: “A hard-hitting, intense crime drama that will crawl under your skin.” —Anna Legat, author of Swimming with Sharks Sam Feyer is relishing her role as head of CID, while Wes Drake is a broken man after the murder of his partner. But crime doesn’t sleep and now, the duo must reopen an inquiry into another brutal killing. For Feyer, it’s a path littered with obstacles, from the autocratic hierarchy of the police to the ill-tempered Drake, a man who greets every attempt to thwart him as a personal challenge to be overcome. Amid frequent disagreements and a fragile tolerance between them, they must forge a new alliance to battle through a smokescreen of corruption, suspicion, and lies—and answer the question: What really happened four years ago? And as fresh murders start to take place, Feyer and Drake must learn to work together if they are going to survive . . .
