Normally quick witted and sharp eyed, Detective Fatima Matthews is being sucker punched by menopause, and that's not even the half of it. Someone is playing deadly games with a local publisher, there's a reader found dead with melted eyes and just when she could really use the career boost, her internal polygraph has decided to flatline.

As the threats escalate and one crisis triggers another, Fatima must come to terms with what it means to face your frailties, and whether a second chance is really possible when your greatest adversary is time.

With plagiarism scandals, buried secrets and red herrings aplenty, Andrea Shaw's thrilling debut gives the local publishing industry its moment in the sun.
