The rules of the game never change. It’s kill or be killed.
I was ready to turn my back on the gang that raised me—ready to leave the criminal life behind until the so-called safe haven I ran to turned out to be another trap.
With nowhere else to go, I do the only thing I can: help the gang’s leader claw his way to power in the Capitol, tying both sides of my double life into a noose around my own neck. Lies are the new currency, and I spend them freely while keeping investigator Holland Lyle tangled in a missing persons case I know far too much about.
The future of the Capitol hangs in the balance, and so does mine. If I want to protect my family and keep my secrets buried, I have to navigate a world where trust is a death sentence, and survival means mastering the art of manipulation.
