From international bestselling author Carolyn Arnold comes a gripping police procedural that will test Detective Madison Knight’s loyalty when the man she loves is accused of murder.

A wedding shattered. A past resurrected. A killer closing in.

Detective Madison Knight’s wedding day comes to a devastating halt when detectives from a neighboring city storm the ceremony and arrest her fiancé, Troy Matthews, for murder. Police believe his childhood friend was about to expose Troy for a brutal crime committed twenty-four years earlier—a murder everyone believed had been solved after another man was convicted.

Everything Madison knows about Troy tells her the police have the wrong man. While investigators build their case against Troy, she follows the evidence and discovers a deadly pattern no one else sees. The people connected to that long-ago night are being targeted one by one, and every new victim brings the killer one step closer to finishing what they started.

As Madison races to expose the truth, the danger grows more personal. The killer isn’t just eliminating the past—they’re watching her every move. And unless Madison can stop them first, she’ll lose far more than the future she’d planned.

Perfect for fans of relentless detectives, realistic police procedurals, and edge-of-your-seat suspense. Readers who enjoy D. K. Hood, Patricia Gibney, and Angela Marsons will love this gripping crime thriller.
