Her therapist, Elise Ward, turned the worst night of Mia's life into a mission for change.Then the murders start.A killer the media dubs the Advocate is hunting people inside the justice system-an ADA, an internal affairs investigator, a judge-killing them with the same kind of cord that scarred Mia's throat. Worse, he's quoting her show.Enter Lucas Reed, the former detective whose long-buried memo once warned that Mia's attack was part of a pattern. He's the only cop who ever believed her. He's also the one Internal Affairs now suspects.Forced into a safe house that is anything but safe, Mia and Lucas must untangle a web of hacked evidence, manipulated narratives, and a mentor who may not have been a hero at all.To stop the Advocate, Mia will have to walk back to the river that almost took her-and decide if she can trust the man standing beside her when the cord tightens again. From the Amazon bestselling author of 'ORIGINS' comes a new romance crime thriller.
