A Phoenix detective’s vendetta against a ruthless crime family unravels generations of secrets and lies—and possibly her very identity—in a gripping thriller by the bestselling author of The Cipher. Years of painstaking investigation are about to pay off. Detective Veranda Cruz is ready to put handcuffs on Bartolo Villalobos, heir apparent to a powerful criminal dynasty, when the operation goes horribly wrong. Veranda’s informant is murdered.
