A murdered pop star. A social media queen in shock. And a trail that leads straight back to the past.
When a beloved French singer is gunned down outside a concert hall and a glamorous influencer is found traumatized at the scene, the case explodes across headlines. Roxane Baxter, lead investigator with the Marseille Major Crimes Division, knows this won’t be an ordinary investigation.
And when a cryptic detail found on the victim pulls her toward a buried chapter in her father’s past, Roxane is forced to call on the one man she can both trust—and never fully understand.
Morgan, the watchmaker. Former agent with an elite tactical unit. Her father. From backstage secrets to social media lies, father and daughter must once again work side by side—one guided by instinct, the other by protocol. But beneath the glittering façade of fame, something far darker is ticking.
A gripping and atmospheric thriller set in southern France, where justice is personal and appearances can kill. Perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Tana French, and Robert Dugoni.
