Detective Aaron Cole’s past is a scar that refuses to heal. Once a promising star in the police force, his career ended in tragedy when a botched case led to the death of his partner and the destruction of his name. Now, a down-and-out private investigator, Aaron lives in the shadows of the city, taking on small cases that barely make a dent in his guilt.
That all changes when a mysterious woman enters his office, asking for help with her husband’s sudden disappearance. Her husband, a respected journalist, was investigating the city's most powerful people. The deeper Aaron digs into the case, the more he uncovers a sinister conspiracy, stretching back decades, involving politicians, criminals, and a crime buried in the city's forgotten past.
As the case threatens to unravel his already fragile sanity, Aaron must confront the buried truths of his own downfall, and the shadows of his past threaten to consume him entirely. With each revelation, he inches closer to a dangerous truth—one that could cost him everything.
