"The pages of this suspense thriller just turned themselves" as a female PI riles her cop boyfriend by taking down a killer by any means--"what a blast!" (Hugh Jackman, Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award-winning actor).

After a move to Sydney to start anew with her detective boyfriend, Makedde Vanderwall is ready to sink her teeth into a career as a forensic psychologist. But with the ink barely dry on her PhD, Mak hopes to make some cash working for a private investigator. But her street smarts and maverick need for justice at any cost could bring her relationship with Detective Andy Flynn to the breaking point. Especially when Mak finds herself infiltrating the upper echelons of Australian society in search of a cold-blooded killer.
