Betrayal doesn’t disappear. It festers and spreads like a disease.
The scales demand consequence and don’t balance themselves. Someone has to tip them back.
That person is me.
By thirty, I have it all. Wealth. Power. Prestige. A face people trust and a name that commands rooms. I know how to win juries, destroy reputations, and bury secrets beneath polished lies. I’m the attorney that most can’t afford.
But then someone sends me a relic of the night my father died. Something that should’ve stayed buried.
That’s when I sense it.
The watching.
The stalking.
The slow breath of someone standing too close and stirring the monster beneath my skin.
They know the truth about me.
And instead of running they keep testing me.
I should be worried.
Instead, I’m obsessed. No one has ever been so bold.
The game is afoot, and when I finally uncover who’s been lurking in the shadows of my life it will be the end for one of us.
