A BROKEN SOUL, AND AN AVENGING FURY…
Danny Kasabian is under deep cover in a Los Angeles gang. A young cop lifted straight out of training, he’s played a key role in the operation to penetrate their criminal network in cities across America. He’s risked his life on a daily basis. And his cover’s just been blown.
Surviving a botched execution and a near-death experience, Danny must now try to pick up his old life after six years away. Six years of absence, of secrecy, of missed moments and misunderstandings. Six years with no word to Beth Franklin, whom he left with no excuse or explanation.
Inevitably, life back home has moved on. And it’s moved on without him.
Then there are the gang members he betrayed, the ones who met their deaths because of him. Treachery was a part of the job but these were people he’d been close to. They put faith in him, they let him in. Lawbreakers all, but they gave him their trust.
And then there’s Rhianna.
Rhianna Madisson is a low-level member of the gang. An Invisible Girl, useful for spying and subterfuge. Her lover Nico is gone and the traitor Danny is responsible. He may have made it home. But if Rhianna has her way, he won’t be home safe.
Danny thinks often of those he betrayed. Rhianna is haunted by the sense that in failing to kill Danny she was betraying her Nico. “But I’m glad the cop survived,” she says. “I thought him dying would fix it for me, but it didn't. I need more.”
If it’s not enough to take someone’s life, you go after what they love.
A compelling story of guilt, obsession and deception from one of our finest writers of dark suspense.
Genre: Mystery
