  • You like fast-paced plots that weave together government corruption, past unsolved deaths, and a protagonist willing to bend the rules.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You want a cosy or procedural thriller where the protagonist stays within professional boundaries.
  • You're looking for a standalone novel rather than the start of a series.

About this book

NYPD detective Jack McNeal is interrogated by the Secret Service as a suspect in the disappearance of his estranged wife, Caroline, a White House reporter. When her body is discovered in the Potomac, Jack is devastated. Her death bears striking similarities to the suspicious death of a young socialite years earlier, raising questions about whether the two incidents are connected or part of a deliberate plot to shield powerful government figures. Determined to avenge Caroline's death, Jack pursues an investigation into the highest levels of power. His suspects range from former special forces soldiers and ex-CIA operatives to the president's own body man. As Jack closes in on the truth, he must confront a critical question: how far is he willing to go to expose the killer?
