When a Tideview police officer is murdered at the infamous Dry Dock 4, the department wants a quick arrest.
IA Detective Kat Booker wants the truth.
The evidence is gift-wrapped, the suspects are too convenient, and the official narrative is a lie Kat refuses to accept. As she peels back layers of institutional rot, the investigation drags her back to the one place she swore she'd never return—the same dock where, twelve years earlier, she lost everything.
Kat isn't just hunting a killer anymore. She's hunting the people who run the city.
With the Police Chief closing ranks and the Mayor pulling strings, Kat becomes more than an investigator—she becomes a problem. In a department where loyalty is bought and silence is survival, she's forced to confront a truth that cuts deeper than any bullet: what happened to her all those years ago wasn't an accident. It was betrayal.
And this time, she doesn't know who to trust.
In a city of broken shields, the truth is the only weapon she has left.
