Description

In the wake of a brutal crime along the Texas Gulf, a determined investigator is pulled into a web of secrets that reaches far beyond the shoreline. As bodies surface and loyalties fracture, she must navigate a tense mix of race, class, and power while confronting the ways communities protect their own. With each new lead, the investigation becomes a study of justice—who gets believed, who gets blamed, and what it costs to keep digging. Attica Locke’s sharp, atmospheric storytelling blends noir momentum with social insight, delivering a compelling, character-driven thriller that lingers long after the final page.
