Ben Malone is a seasoned LAPD detective with a promising future—until everything falls apart. A string of fatal on-duty shootings, rising public outrage over police force, and pressure from his superiors push Malone to the edge. With protesters in the streets and media scrutiny mounting, his bosses start to question his judgment and label him a potential liability.
They pull him from the field and reassign him to Robbery-Homicide’s Cold Case Section while he undergoes a mandatory psych evaluation. Struggling with depression, a bitter divorce, and too much alcohol, Malone hits rock bottom.
At first, he resents the cold case assignment. But that changes when he and his new partner, Detective Jaime Reyes, find an old file—an unsolved 23-year-old murder. The more they dig, the more they believe the original investigation got it all wrong. When the case is denied for official reopening, they pursue it off-the-books.
That decision puts them in dangerous territory.
Powerful figures inside and outside the LAPD want the case to stay buried. But Malone refuses to back down. As the case gets personal and the pressure intensifies, Malone risks his career—and his life. No matter the cost, he’s determined to uncover the truth behind the murder.
Come what may.
