Behind the Badge
She’s supposed to uphold the law. He was born to slip through it.
Detective Lila Harrow has spent years chasing whispers — women who vanish without a trace, all linked by one The Reflections Hotel.
Polished. Prestigious. Owned by the charming and untouchable Nathaniel Graves.
To the public, he’s a gentleman. To Lila, he’s a predator hiding in plain sight.
When a fresh body surfaces and the evidence leads back to the hotel again, Lila descends into a personal and dangerous game of cat and mouse. But the deeper she digs, the more the hotel itself seems to twist around her. Surveillance no one admits exists. Rooms that don’t appear on the blueprints. A basement that was never in the records.
And Nathaniel? He’s always one step ahead — watching her, studying her… maybe even falling for her.
What began as a pursuit of justice becomes an obsession. But Lila isn’t just hunting a killer.
She’s being invited.
Behind the Badge is a tense, seductive psychological thriller about control, obsession, and the thin line between justice and revenge. Perfect for fans of You, Verity, and The Silent Patient.

Detective Lila Harrow is out to solve the murders of the missing girls. Nathaniel Graves thinks he has gotten away with the unspeakable. She is determined not to stop until she holds him responsible. But she walking in to a trap.
Mind-boggling, suspenseful, page turning. I can't wait for the next book. I was drawn in with every page.
