From the #1 NY Times bestsellng writer of Seeing Red comes a ‘scorching…action-filled’ (Publishers Every week) tale of corruption and betrayal, revenge, and reversal.

When newswoman Britt Shelley wakes up to find herself in bed with Jay Burgess, a star detective in the Charleston PD, she remembers absolutely nothing of how she got there-or how Jay wound up dead. Handsome, hard-partying Jay was one of four heroic city officials who risked their lives five years previously to business lead others to safety from a catastrophic fire. His lifelong friend, Raley Gannon, was later assigned to research the blaze. But Raley never completed the inquiry because one calamitous night his profession was ruined by scandal. Now, the newswoman whose biased reporting helped result in Raley’s downfall might be his just chance to vindicate himself and obtain justice for the fire’s victims. However the more Raley and Britt discover about that fateful day, the greater perilous the situation turns into, until they’re not only chasing the truth but running because of their lives.
