Ambitious state prosecutor Alexandra Gaither has spent her life waiting for the chance to seek justice. Now, armed with fresh evidence, she returns to the small town where her mother died twenty-five years ago—determined to uncover the truth. Her focus? Three influential men who were with her mother the night she died: her former lover, his best friend, and the mentor who shaped them both. Each had motive, each had opportunity, and all of them have secrets they’re desperate to keep. But Alex refuses to back down, even as her investigation disrupts the town’s carefully guarded past. With only a month to close the case, she’s racing against time—because someone is willing to do anything to stop her. And if she isn’t careful, she might be the next to die.
