Book Description by Author:

When Ava Hart's boyfriend, Daryl Pierce, is shot to death in his home on the same night he witnessed a man being abducted, the police are quick to write it off as a case of wrong place, wrong time. Ava disagrees. She's convinced they killed him. And she's hired PI Evan Buckley to unearth the truth. Trouble is, as Evan discovers all too soon, Ava wouldn't recognize the truth if it jumped up and bit her on the ass. Things immediately get off to a disastrous start for Evan and his partner, Detective Kate Guillory, when a cruel twist of fate throws them back into the darkest days of their shared past, the guilt and demons they hoped they'd put behind them rudely awakened. The deeper Evan digs, the higher the lies pile up and the faster he goes nowhere. From Ava herself to Daryl's bitter widow to a dirty cop to a vicious gang of outlaw bikers, the list of suspects just keeps on growing. Only one thing's for sure. If he's to have any chance of solving it, he needs to get to the bottom of the most insidious lie of all - what is Ava hiding, and why?
