Kelsey Granger is determined to turn a past failure into a new opportunity when she takes a job at the coroner's office. There's just one problem – her boss doesn't think she's confident enough to work solo. When Kelsey arrives at her first murder investigation to find the responding officer contaminating the evidence, she starts to wonder if her boss was right.

Zara Hayes hates death scenes. She's been on patrol for five years but the police chief won't promote her until she can overcome this fear. And now here she is, just feet away from a dead body while a pretty young investigator reads her the riot act because she thinks Zara screwed up her scene.

With a killer on the loose, there's no time to argue or play mind games. Zara and Kelsey must team up to solve the case. As they get closer to the truth, they also get closer to each other in this hot romantic suspense.
