"You probably shouldn't find out." Private investigator Evan Walker is paid to uncover other people's secrets. Getting personally involved has never been part of the job. Then Riley Hayes catches him following her brother. She should ruin the investigation. Instead, the sharp-tongued event producer becomes his unlikely partner-determined to help expose the truth about the man her family has spent years believing can do no wrong.

Rachel, Al, Lauren, Joe and Sunny grew up together in Queensborough in the late Seventies, solidifying their friendship by forming the Lawrence Street Detective Club. They found a lost pet or two, and even gained brief fame by helping a kid escape his abusive father with the help of Martha Anderson, a kind older woman on their street. They eventually moved away, but never forgot each other, and thirty years later the memorial for Mrs. Anderson reunites them. Rachel, an accountant fired over an embezzlement scandal, divorced, broke and persecuted on social media, would rather not have her old friends know about her troubles, or about her new friend, who may or may not be a symptom of her deteriorating mental condition, but her sudden assignment as executor for Mrs. Anderson's estate forces her to depend on them. Al, infatuated with Rachel since they were children, helps her catalogue the contents of Mrs. Anderson's house but discovers a new mystery requiring the Lawrence Street Detective Club to get back on the case. Lauren, now a private investigator and married to Joe, never lost the knack for the work they did when they were kids, and works to clear Rachel's name while also reconciling with her own feelings for her. Sunny, the lawyer representing Mrs. Anderson's estate, helps Rachel fight back when the man who originally framed her for embezzlement now wants her removed as executor. And when a shocking development draws them all into helping another of his victims, they'll need to rely on each other more than ever before as they risk losing everything they worked for.

Now, reborn into a world where humanity is the hunted, James stumbles into a monstrous society. Here, the lines between predator and prey are razor-thin, and survival demands a thirst for more than just blood. This wasn't justice, wasn't redemption. This was a descent into a nightmare where the monsters are real, and the only escape is the final embrace of oblivion. The city may sleep, but beneath the veil, James Miller will learn a terrible truth - the monsters are not only real, they've just added him to their ranks.
