Tell Them This When I Die by tarishannon18

This city is a mess. First of all, the police are hilariously unsuccessful in arresting a highly criminal nightclub owner. The media are ensuring everyone knows, resulting in city-wide romanization of crime. Second of all, the city's star detective is currently struggling to understand why that nightclub owner- a certifiable genius with a record-breaking intelligence score- chose the criminal lifestyle over, say, being a NASA engineer. And that brilliant criminal's boyfriend is equally confused over why she consistently takes unnecessary risks. This spiderweb of crime has been spun so far that even that detective's ex-fiancé, a bumbling idiot who also has custody over his daughter, is getting involved. So is that bartender who works for that criminal, and so is that detective's boss. And while all that happens, another criminal- most definitely not a certifiable genius- is ready to rip the spiderweb apart. In truth, it doesn't matter what they say about you while you're still here. It matters what they say about you long after you're gone. ** Rated mature for graphic depictions of drugs, violence and sex. Stunning cover by deathinreverie
