When private investigator Killian Kendall takes on two new cases, he expects challenges — but not the kind that cut so close to home. A murder tied to his boyfriend’s past threatens their future, while a friend’s secret life drags Killian into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. As lies unravel and loyalties are tested, Killian learns that in a world built on secrets, the truth of yesterday becomes a lie tomorrow.

He barely has time to settle in when his ex-boyfriend calls with a desperate plea: prove his new boyfriend didn’t brutally murder his father with an axe. The victim was abusive, the evidence damning, and the accused is evasive, but something doesn’t add up. As Killian digs deeper, he finds himself caught in a web of lies, manipulation, and violence. Solving the case may clear a name...or cost Killian his life.
