A mentor’s murder. A forgotten cold case. A private eye with everything to lose.

When veteran detective Frank Callahan is found murdered in his own home, private investigator Harry Starke refuses to let the crime go unsolved. Frank wasn’t just a cop—he was Harry’s mentor, the man who taught him everything he knows. But the crime scene holds a chilling secret: evidence from the Riverside Strangler case, a decade-old series of murders along the Tennessee River.

Frank’s final note claims the impossible—one of the supposed victims, Catherine Wells, may still be alive.

As Harry digs deeper, he unearths a web of corruption and conspiracy that stretches into the city’s most powerful institutions. The closer he gets to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes. Someone is watching his every move, and they’ve already proven they’ll kill to keep their secrets buried.

Fast-paced, gritty, and full of twists, this new Harry Starke thriller is a must-read for fans of hard-boiled detective fiction, southern noir, and cold case mysteries.
