Aerin makes a living mending what can still be saved. She knows better than to ask questions-because in this city, the truth has a habit of disappearing people. When a series of murders surfaces with no witnesses, no memories, and no clear motive, she's pulled into an investigation no one wants solved.
Nyx survives in the margins. A fixer. A hunter of things that don't stay buried. His name is whispered after crimes, always close enough to blame, never close enough to prove. What Aerin doesn't know is that Nyx has already lied to her-and the truth would make her run.
As they follow a trail of false confessions, altered memories, and carefully planted evidence, Aerin realizes the murders aren't about power or revenge. They're about containment. Someone is killing to keep secrets sealed-and Aerin is one of them.
The deeper their connection grows, the more dangerous honesty becomes. Because some lies protect. Some lies destroy. And the worst ones are told out of love.
Every secret has a cost.
Some are paid in blood.
But will Nyx take revenge on her when he finds out? What will he do in this situation?
