Two damaged souls. One brutal murder. A conspiracy that could ignite global chaos.

Peri O'Brien likes the quiet life. Once a renowned climate scientist, she's become a ghost, determined to escape the scandal that gutted her career and ruined her name. But when a man dies beside her in a dark theater, her silent exile explodes into chaos. Suddenly, Peri is at the center of something violent, tangled, and all too familiar.

FBI Agent Soren Blackbird doesn't do distractions. He hunts killers—serial predators and bone collectors. When he's ordered off his current case to look into the assassination of a foreign envoy, he's pissed... until the trail leads straight to Peri—and a global threat that's been building in the shadows.

As bodies stack up and a terrifying eco-terror plot begins to unfold, Soren and Peri are forced into an uneasy alliance. Neither trusts easily; both have demons. But the only way to survive what's coming is to face the past they've both been running from—and to decide whether love is just another kind of weakness... or the one thing worth dying for.

Grab the fifth pulse-pounding installment in this gritty romantic thriller series today.
