I’m Newt Doherty—half of Partners-in-Crime, the detective agency I built with Xavier Ormond, the infuriating genius who once dragged me out of a serial killer’s den and saved my life. We live together (for efficiency). We solve murders (for fun and bills).
We're not dating.
Try telling that to Shorewitch’s tabloids.
Now every corner hides a camera, every headline swears we’re sleeping together, and every ‘no comment’ sounds like a confession. Which would almost be fine—except I’m hopelessly in love with Xavier, and we’re knee-deep in two murder cases, one with a killer who’s always a step ahead.
The city wants a scandal. The killer wants silence. And I have to find out what happened between Xavier and me on the drunken night I can’t remember—before someone writes our final headline.
