Orphaned and alone, Frank Judson has survived years undercover, slipping into every entertainment den in Yorick to perfect an alias. His cover is fragile—time and again he's been exposed by Lila Tynan, his high school desk mate turned police detective, turning reunion into interrogation. Then Captain Sam Lunn hands a dangerous order: infiltrate Bernice Ruth's inner circle, the city's shadow queen. Starting at SpaVille foot spa, Frank peels back layer after layer of deception, stepping closer to a world that could undo him. Lila watches, torn between duty and the boy she once knew. As lies unravel, tension sharpens: can Frank complete the job without losing himself, and will Lila arrest truth or save the memory she cannot forget?

Watching Lila recognize him hurt beautifully. You feel the old boy inside Frank.

Frank spends too long in disguises, seriously. Lila deserves coffee and a medal.

Busted again by his old desk mate. Lila really had no mercy.
