"This latest installment will likely satisfy Quinn and Costa’s loyal followers and attract those curious about the interplay between public policy, law enforcement, and politics." —Booklist

When a key witness goes missing, Quinn & Costa must find her before a killer silences her for good…

Detective Kara Quinn is back in Los Angeles to testify against a notorious human trafficker, finally moving past the case that upended her life. But when the accused is shot in broad daylight, the chaotic scene of the crime turns up few reliable bystanders. And one witness—a whistleblower who might be the key to everything—has disappeared.

After another person close to the case is killed, it’s clear that anyone who knows too much is in danger, and tracking down the witness becomes a matter of life-and-death. But as explosive secrets surface within the LAPD and FBI, Kara questions everything she thought she knew about the case, her colleagues and the life she left behind months ago.

Now with FBI special agent Matt Costa’s help, she must race to find the missing witness and get to the bottom of the avalanche of conspiracies that has rocked LA to its core…before it's too late.

Fiction? Hmmm…

Great character development, and story, & plot resolution. Curiously, how many real life topics can you address in one novel? Also, this is why it’s such a mess in the US. Another winner from AB.

Well thought out and if truly researched and accurate, then a true eye opener to the world of homelessness.

I love the narrator but sometimes her distinctions between characters blurs and you must pay close attention to whom is speaking.

Twisty crime

Liked the complexity of the crime. Enjoyed seeing Quinn and Costa again. Only minor interaction between them. But that story was advanced also.

Great

This was edge of your seat suspense! Don’t miss out! This is a very good series.

Good storyline

Great characters and plenty of action. There were two female characters who, when they spoke in the first person, the narrator didn’t or couldn’t distinguish - they both sounded the same.

Best Quinn and Costa so far!

Wow Wow Wow!! I have read or listened to most of this author's books including the whole Lucy Kincaid series. I always read the series in order to get the most out of how the characters grow. This installment of Quinn and Costa was superb!! There's lots of characters to follow and so many twists in the investigation it had my head spinning, but in a good way. I am blown away by how Allison could keep the plot going and making sense without revealing any of the "who done it" until the chapter she wanted to. Love this author. As mist readers know, it's a little sad when a book ends, especially in a series, because we want to know what happens next. I am so glad I only have to wait until January 7 for the next book! Going to use a credit and pre-order right now.

Relevance to issues ongoing with a perspective that I haven’t heard before.

There was quite a bit of repetitive self reflection from the female lead characters. Tedious.

Wow

As always, Allison did not disappoint. The story had twists and turns and held my attention from the start to finish, and I can’t believe the surprise in the story!!

Great story; layered and engrossing

Story and characters. Narration was okay better with some characters than others. Love how Quinn is learning to care.

It’s worth the wait !!!!!

It kept me guessing all the way through. Allison Brennan never disappoints she just keeps getting better& better.
