A couple hunting for a bargain finds something far darker, a thick liquid oozing from a car’s trunk. One call to the cops, and the lid pops open to reveal a corpse. No ID. No answers. Just a dead man waiting to ruin someone’s day. The dealer can’t produce a title, and suspicion spreads fast. Cari’s boss insists the man is innocent and sends her to clear his name. Brenington PD detectives Genevieve and Alex dig for answers, but the trail is already going cold. Cari’s newlywed life is pulling her focus, and the deeper she digs, the more tangled the lies become. If she misses a single clue, the killer may disappear for good, and the next shattered link could be her.
