Perfect for you if...

  • You love crime fiction that's gritty and character-driven, not just procedural—where the cops are as flawed and dangerous as the criminals.
  • You want a mystery that unfolds through multiple unreliable perspectives, with twists that recontextualise everything you thought you knew.
  • You're drawn to stories about broken systems and how ordinary people get crushed between institutional corruption and their own weakness.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer police procedurals where the detective is competent and likeable—Michael Ormewood is neither.
  • You want a feel-good narrative or redemption arc. This book will gut you and leave you unsettled.
  • You're sensitive to scenes involving sexual violence and exploitation. This book doesn't shy away from the darker aspects of its crimes.

About this book

A killer operates across Atlanta's wealthiest suburbs and inner-city housing projects, crossing boundaries of wealth and race. Those pursuing him must do the same. Michael Ormewood, a veteran detective, struggles with a failing marriage while his arrogance and temper jeopardize his career. Angie Polaski, a vice cop and former lover of Ormewood's, is now his adversary. A third player enters the investigation: an ex-con who has coincidentally discovered the killer's trail and may hold the key to solving the case. The novel weaves together a complex, multilayered story involving body-bending switchbacks, psychological suspense, and human emotion. It builds tension through successive revelations toward a climactic conclusion.
