Marc Olden’s crime novels are “as brutally effective as a .44 Magnum and just as powerful” (Flint Journal, MI). Now Olden takes the safety off, pointing a New York City cop down a bottomless barrel of murder, blackmail, drugs, and betrayal.

Detective Rosalind “Ross” Magellan lives for the adrenaline rush of undercover work, and she’s riding her ultimate high—seting up a dope-peddling judge. Working after-hours, often without badge or gun, her only backup is her ghost—the detective whose sole responsibility is to stay hidden until intervention becomes vital. But Ross is also haunted, and hunted, by a different ghost—a stalker just as artfully cunning as herself. Now with all eyes on her every move, she’s about to enter a labyrinth of deadly deception where her first false step will be her last.
