Detective Lena Cruz has spent her entire life chasing justice, but when her latest mission demands she go undercover inside La Rosa Nera-an crime syndicate with a reputation for blood and beauty-she's forced to face a darker version of herself.
Her target: Valentina Moretti, the enigmatic and ruthless new queen of the underworld. Intelligent. Deadly. Alluring. Everything Lena isn't supposed to want.
Lena tells herself it's just a job. Gain her trust. Gather intel. Bring her down.
But Valentina has secrets of her own-and a gaze that sees straight through lies. As lines blur and loyalties fray, the hunter becomes the hunted in a city painted with roses and soaked in crimson.
There's one rule in La Rosa Nera:
Don't fall in love with the queen.
