| In this gripping debut procedural starring an iconic female PI, an ex-cop is dragged back into the policing world that she fled when a teen girl goes missing in her new town. Please help me. I think he killed Avery. Vanetta (Vinnie) Taylor isn’t a cop anymore. Once a decorated detective, after 25 years in law enforcement, Vinnie left her job in a blaze of scandal—working undercover to bust a sex trafficking ring in her own Homicide Unit. Nearly beaten to death by her former colleagues to prevent her testimony from crossing the thin blue line, she’s found peace in the small town of Wills Harbor, Maryland. Or so she thought. When a local teenager with a penchant for trouble goes missing and nobody in town seems concerned besides the girl's best friend, Vinnie can’t help but feel a certain kinship to this teen she’s never met. Vinnie also grew up poor, surrounded by hard circumstances and harder people. She takes the case, even if it means returning to a world she's gone hundreds of miles to leave behind. But as she digs deeper, Vinnie uncovers a trail of dangerous online encounters and a double life that Avery kept from even her best friends. The closer she gets to answers, the more perilous her own circumstances becomes. Does Vinnie have the courage to face the ghosts of her past and the ugly truths hiding in her new hometown? |
