A disgraced ex-detective. A missing child. And a town full of secrets she thought she’d left behind.
Harper Adams lost everything—her badge, her reputation, and her future. With no options left, she returns to her small Arkansas hometown, determined to stay low and drink her shame into silence. But her plans are shattered when a young girl disappears.
The missing child is the daughter of Harper’s old friend, and the case hits far too close to home. The details mirror the abduction and murder of Harper’s own sister—an unsolved crime that’s haunted her for over twenty years. With local police mishandling the case and time running out, Harper knows she’s the only one who can see the truth.
But she can’t do it alone.
To cut through the lies and corruption choking the town, Harper turns to an unlikely ally—James Malcolm, a former crime boss with his own complicated history. Together, they dig into a tangled web of secrets, facing old grudges, buried guilt, and a town that hasn’t forgotten Harper’s fall from grace.
To save the girl, Harper must confront her past—and make a deal with the devil she never saw coming. Because some crimes never really fade. And some justice can only be found off the books.
