Perfect for you if...

  • You love thrillers built on mistaken identity and false evidence where you're genuinely unsure who to trust until the final pages.
  • You appreciate flawed protagonists with real stakes, especially when a character has to make impossible choices between self-preservation and truth.
  • You want a page-turner that doesn't sacrifice character depth for plot, with dual perspectives that let you piece together what actually happened.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You find religious themes distracting in fiction, even subtle ones woven into the narrative and character arcs.
  • You need your thrillers morally black and white; this one trades in shades of grey and asks uncomfortable questions about justice.
  • You prefer standalone novels; this is book one of a series and ends with threads that continue into the next instalments.

About this book

Casey Cox knows she didn't commit the murder, but her DNA covers the crime scene. Distrusting the police, who have failed her before, she flees rather than face arrest. The truth no longer seems to matter. Dylan Roberts, a war-weary veteran struggling with PTSD, is hired to find Casey. Bringing her in could redeem him, but the murder details don't align. Casey doesn't fit the profile of a killer, yet she ran. Dylan must determine whether his perceptions are clouding his judgment. As Dylan investigates Casey's past and the evidence against her, his damaged soul intersects with hers. He faces a critical question: is Casey a psychopathic killer or a selfless hero? The truth may prove more dangerous than either possibility. This is the first book in the If I Run series, which also includes If I'm Found and If I Live.
