Part of FBI Thriller, book 25
First published 2021
Investigative journalist Mia Briscoe has never stopped searching for her best friend Serena, who vanished during a fraternity house fire seven years ago. When Mia discovers an old photograph from that night, she spots crucial evidence and turns to FBI agent Sherlock for help. Their investigation reveals a web of corruption stretching back to the deadly party, but influential figures will kill to keep their secrets buried. Meanwhile, CIA operative Olivia Hildebrandt barely survives a mission in Iran when a grenade nearly kills her. After recovering at Walter Reed Hospital, she finds her rescuer has disappeared and assassins arrive at her home. Agent Savich connects Olivia's attack to the compromised Iranian operation and realizes someone betrayed the mission. As Savich digs deeper into the intelligence breach, he becomes a target himself. Both cases force the FBI team to confront enemies who use murder as their primary weapon.
