Romance Suspense | Mystery Police Procedural
Three years ago, a child’s death blew open a vortex of
corruption inside Manhattan’s lucrative construction
industry. And it sent one innocent man to jail. Joe Cole is
a former city investigator who now lives a broken life, cut
off from his wife and daughter, and from the city he once
knew so well. But for Joe, everything changes when a
woman’s murder and a teenager’s rooftop freefall rip open
old wounds—and reveal a shocking layer of rage and
deception. It is Joe’s former partner, beautiful, hard-charging
investigator Ann Montgomery, who first sees the lies,
forcing Joe out of his self-imposed isolation to help her
unravel the cover-ups and secret relationships that allow
the powerful to hide their crimes. Soon, the two are
entering the darkest corners of their city, delving into
the hidden desires of a borough president who wants to be
mayor, the motivations of a charismatic community activist,
and the machinations of a mayor whose ambitions know no
bounds. As the secrets of each player are exposed, as the
primal forces of greed, sex, and power come to the surface,
Ann and Joe know they must press their search all the way
to the end—because the most powerful revelations are yet to
come.
