Perfect for you if...

  • You love legal thrillers with real stakes where the lawyer's moral conviction puts him at odds with powerful people.
  • You enjoy mysteries where the obvious suspect isn't the guilty one, and the real truth is buried deeper than anyone wants to look.
  • You appreciate tight plotting and character-driven tension over the course of a full novel.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced procedurals that move town to town; this one is anchored in Savannah and its web of connections.
  • You want heroes who play it safe; Hank's willingness to antagonise everyone won't feel satisfying if you prefer quieter protagonists.
  • You're looking for a standalone; this is book two in a series, and you'll get more from the character development if you've read book one.

About this book

A high-tech scheme involving AI and cryptocurrency promises to bring a floating casino to Savannah, positioning the city as America's Monte Carlo. The project has captured the enthusiasm of the city's influential figures. When the police chief's daughter, Natalie Weiland, is brutally murdered, detectives quickly focus on her ex-boyfriend Stevie Valentine. The district attorney builds a case against him, but questioning the investigation means challenging the chief's grief. Defense attorney Hank Luger takes Valentine's case and begins investigating Natalie's background, uncovering a secret online affair, hidden investments, and her involvement in scamming an older lover. He discovers a pattern of weaponized digital romance and ruthless schemes. As he digs deeper, he wonders whether these activities connect to Savannah's prized development project. Hank's pursuit of the truth triggers escalating threats against him, his family, and his staff. He faces a choice: back away and allow the city to ignore what he's discovered, or risk everything to expose the reality beneath the project's polished promises.
