From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 6:20 Man
comes a twisting new psychological thriller in which two women--one a
former detective, the other a dangerous con artist--go head-to-head in
an electrifying game of cat and mouse.
Mickey Gibson, single mother and former detective, leads a hectic life
similar to that of many moms: juggling the demands of her two small
children with the tasks of her job working remotely for ProEye, a global
investigation company that hunts down wealthy tax and credit cheats.
When Mickey gets a call from a colleague named Arlene Robinson, she
thinks nothing of Arlene's unusual request for her to go inventory the
vacant home of an arms dealer who cheated ProEye's clients and fled.
That is, until she arrives at the mansion to discover a dead body in a
secret room--and that nothing is as it seems.
Not only does the arms dealer not exist but the murder victim turns out
to be Harry Langhorne, a man with mob ties who used to be in Witness
Protection. What's more, no one named Arlene Robinson works at ProEye.
In the blink of an eye, Gibson has become a prime suspect in a murder
investigation--and now her job is also on the line until she proves that
she was set up. Before long, Gibson is locked in a battle of wits with a
brilliant woman with no name, a hidden past, and unknown motives--whose
end game is as mysterious as it is deadly.
