Chasing Shadows

«The air seemed to buzz with silence and the smell of cleaning agents, and Erika desperately wanted to open the window. What if the spirit of the woman still lingered in these walls and needed to be set free? She pushed the silly thought away.»

A routine call to the site of a ceiling collapse turns into a mysterious murder for Chief Inspector Erika Foster. In an empty apartment — a body, all evidence destroyed, and traces of cocaine everywhere in the debris. The trail leads Erika to a man from her worst nightmare — Jerome Goodman, her husband's killer.

Erika immediately arrests him, but there's one problem: according to his passport and the words of his lawyer, this man's name is Kiron Bagshaw, and he has no connection to Erika's past.

Suspended from work under the pretext of caring for her mental health, Erika uses her forced leave for her own investigation. Now, the case of her husband's murder, previously closed, becomes the most personal and dangerous investigation of her life — and she conducts it, ignoring all prohibitions.
