Summary

Detective Inspector Tess Fox is handed a baffling case: a man has been thrown from a locked apartment balcony. The twist? Tess knew the victim. Only her half-sister, Sarah Jacobs—a clever con artist with a shady history—knows about the connection. As more victims turn up in similarly impossible situations, Tess is forced to confront the secrets in her own family. With trust in short supply and the line between right and wrong blurring, she must figure out the truth—before it’s too late. This gripping mystery explores loyalty, deception, and the grey areas of justice.
