About this ebook
Mason "Mace" Perry was a maverick cop on the D.C. police force until she was kidnapped and framed for a crime. She lost everything - her career, her liberty - and spent two years in prison.

For what began as a fairly routine homicide investigation will quickly turn into something far more complex. And possibly lethal...
