• Fortuitous; happening by accident or chance rather than design. • Saylor gets a job offer in her hometown, which she gladly accepts. She misses her hometown, her family, and especially her best friend, Hadley... but what will happen when Hadley's sister, Emerson, also moves back to town? • The two may discover they have more in common than they ever thought possible as well as be forced to process some underlying feelings they thought they buried.

They thought the past was buried. But some codes never die. In the underbelly of Chicago, the Moretti crime family is under siege. Three men-each with ties to the family and each marked with a cryptic message: CODE 606. As bodies drop and fear rises, enforcer Luca Moretti and his best friend Nico realize this isn't a turf war. It's a message. Detective Ava North has spent years trying to bring the Morettis down. But when the murders begin pointing to a secret buried deep in her own past-and a forgotten mission in Afghanistan-she must decide who the real enemy is... and how far she's willing to go to expose the truth. With a killer pulling strings from the shadows, Ava, Luca, and Nico must navigate a deadly web of loyalty, betrayal, and unfinished war. Because some sins don't stay in the desert. And CODE 606 was never meant to be reopened.
