In the second book of the thrilling new Angelhart Investigations series from New York Times bestselling author Allison Brennan, the Angelharts must figure out whether a teen's death is a tragic accident...or a murder. The police ruled Elijah Martinez's death an accidental drug overdose, but the teen's grieving mother isn't convinced. With the case officially closed, Angelhart Investigations is the only one who can help her find the truth. Margo Angelhart's sure this will be an easy solve--she'll talk to Elijah's friends and employer, retrace his steps, and figure out what happened in his final hours. Except none of his friends believe he did drugs, and the teacher who's been vocal about the police mishandling the case turns up dead. Every thread Margo pulls leads back to a dangerous drug ring that once ran through the school. When Margo's brother Jack, a former cop, can't get straight answers out of the police, they don't know if it's because of an active case...or a cover-up. Margo's only sure of one thing--she has to find out what really happened to Elijah before more teens become pawns in a twisted scheme.

Investigative reporter Maxine Revere has a theory: that the five New York City murders for which Adam Bachman is being tried are just part of his killing spree. In probing the disappearance of a retired couple who vanished the prior summer, Max uncovers striking similarities to Bachman's MO and develops a theory that Bachman wasn't working alone. Max wins a coveted pre-trial interview with the killer, whose disarming composure in the face of her questions is combined with uncomfortable knowledge of Max's own past. She leaves the room convinced, but unable to prove, that Bachman knows exactly what happened to the missing couple. The D.A. wants nothing to jeopardize his case against Bachman and refuses to consider Max's theory. With no physical evidence, Max has to rely on her own wits and investigative prowess to dig deep into Bachman's past. The picture that Max puts together is far darker and more deadly than she ever imagined. As Max gets closer to the truth, she doesn't realize that she's walking down a road that has been paved just for her. That every step she takes brings her one step closer to a brilliant, methodical sociopath who has been waiting for her to make just one small mistake. And when she does, he'll be there waiting.

A legújabb ügy azonban a saját múltjába kalauzolja vissza: egykori barátja temetésére érkezik a szülővárosába, ám felmerül benne a gyanú, hogy az illető – szemben az állításokkal – nem önkezével vetett véget az életének. Max elkezdi feltárni a múltat, és olyan sötét titkokkal szembesül, amelyek egyre közelebb vezetnek a saját háza tájához is... "Max modern, fiatal, félelmet nem ismerő hősnő, aki persze a legrémesebb helyzetekben találja magát. Szimpatikus, szerethető szereplő, akiért a regény felétől nagyon izgultam... Egyik kedvenc műfajom a krimi, úgyhogy örömmel jelentetem meg magyarul ezt az izgalmas regényt, amely az első része a Max Revere-trilógiának." – Fejős Éva
