The Man They Killed Just Walked In

Ten years ago, Ezra Donahue lost his family in a fire, and he should have perished, too. Luckily for him, he was saved and trained by the man who started the fire, Silas Mercer. Ezra learned one lesson: survival comes with a price. Now he returns to the city under a new name and identity to bring Silas down from the inside. 

Lena Whitmore, the girl who pulled him from the flames, has spent a lifetime digging into the city’s corruption. Her research has led her into the crosshairs of Silas. When Ezra and Lena cross paths again, they both decide to unravel the conspiracy that delves deep into the city’s elite. 

They discover that Silas is not working alone, and Lena’s own family may be connected to the fire. Ezra pretends to work with Silas, as it is the only way to take him down. 

It is a risky move, but Lena’s life is on the line.
