When FBI cyber analyst Scarlett Crowe is assigned to the high-profile case of "The Cipher Murders," she finds herself entangled in a deadly game. A series of encrypted messages have been left at gruesome crime scenes, each code more complex and chilling than the last. The Bureau believes they're dealing with a serial killer using sophisticated encryption to communicate with an unknown accomplice-and Scarlett is the best in the field to decode it.
But Scarlett's expertise in cracking codes isn't the only reason she's brought onto the case. This killer seems to know her past, connecting the crimes to people she once knew and cases she thought she'd left behind. Partnered with Nicholas Kline, a brilliant yet brash ex-detective with his own reputation for solving the impossible, Scarlett's is pushed out of her comfort zone and into a high-stakes chase against time.
As they unravel each message, Scarlett and Nicholas realize that the killer isn't just toying with the FBI-they're targeting Scarlett herself, forcing her to confront secrets she's long buried. In a twisted game where the past collides with the present, Scarlett and Nicholas must rely on each other, each revelation drawing them closer to a shocking truth that neither could have predicted.

The Only Logic I Follow
Gemini is the FBI's dark, highly-decorated lead field agent. Driven by rigid protocol and a need for certainty, he has built his career on being dark and broody-an imposing force of physical control. When a catastrophic national data breach occurs, he's ready to hunt. Fourth is the Bureau's brilliant, controversial hacker, known for his quick-witted mind, sassy mouth, and utter disdain for authority. He's disliked by his peers but is the only asset capable of cracking the code. They are forced together on the same task force. In the high-pressure, forced proximity of the bunker, their rivalry immediately ignites. Gemini despises Fourth's chaotic arrogance; Fourth mercilessly mocks Gemini's predictable "brute force." But as the investigation accelerates, their professional hostility melts into a volatile, undeniable attraction. Fourth's superior intellect forces the dark and broody agent to surrender his pride, and in return, Gemini's unwavering protection forces the sassy hacker to reveal the fear beneath his façade. When the case becomes lethal, Gemini must decide if he can abandon the logic that defined his life and follow the only logic that matters: the messy, brilliant, and undeniable heart of the man he was supposed to hate. An intense enemies-to-lovers romance where the greatest risk isn't in the field-it's in the supply closet.Complete

The man she thought she had forgotten-Marcus Ravel-was executed for his gruesome crimes, but his shadow still looms over her. As Ava tries to reclaim her life, fragmented memories begin to resurface.

With the arrival of a cryptic message and a series of unsettling events, Ava is forced to confront the truth she's been running from. As she digs deeper into Marcus's dark world, she realizes that the game is far from over, and she's still playing it-unwittingly-and at a much higher stake. But she's not alone. Eric Grant, the detective who once guided her through the dark maze of Marcus's mind, now holds secrets of his own. The truth about his involvement with Marcus is more dangerous than Ava could have ever imagined, and his loyalties are being questioned as the line between friend and foe becomes increasingly blurred.
