SHOP | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Bookstore.org
A gripping thriller packed with psychological suspense, mystery, murder, deception, trauma, and the relentless pursuit of justice.
EVERYONE HAS SECRETS... SOME ARE JUST MORE DEADLY THAN OTHERS.
When Madison starts her first real job as an executive assistant at a Silicon Valley tech giant, she has hopes to start afresh and put her troubled life in Boston behind her. But it is not to be.
On day one, she learns she is replacing an employee killed in a hit-and-run. On day two, she meets her charismatic VP boss, who immediately unsettles her. By day five, she is convinced there is more to him than meets the eye, and that he could be the mastermind behind the Twin Towers attack that killed her father—now hiding in plain sight behind the facade of his Silicon Valley success. But how could that be possible? He died on the plane with her father twenty years ago.
Madison’s attempt to uncover the truth will thrust her into the heart of a diabolical conspiracy—one that veteran FBI agent Niles is desperate to crack before it’s too late. But nothing is what it seems, and none of them are prepared for the explosive surprise.
Tick-tick-tick...
