Mickey Gibson, a single mother and former detective, juggles remote investigative work and parenting until a routine assignment leads her to a vacant mansion and a hidden corpse linked to organized crime. The caller who sent her can't be found, and the scene doesn't add up.

Suddenly under suspicion, Gibson must prove she was set up while racing to unmask a clever, nameless adversary. The novel follows a tense contest of wits, where identity, motive, and truth are constantly blurred.

Readers who enjoy layered mysteries and female-led, character-driven suspense will appreciate the novel's steady pacing, psychological tension, and twists that reframe loyalties and danger.
