  Some lines have to be crossed. And for this former federal agent, breaking the law is just the beginning… 
  Working security for a nightclub should be simple. But nothing ever is. When Alexis Parker agreed to protect the club from thieves, she never thought she would end up wanted for murder. But Alex made a mistake. A big one, that could cost her everything. 
  In a single moment, she is transformed from private investigator to cold-blooded killer. With a bullet lodged in her side and a corrupt cop determined to silence her, she's forced to do the one thing she never imagined – she must run. But running only makes her look guiltier. 
  Now, Alex is on a mission to find evidence to clear her name. Fortuitously, she encounters a man who offers to make her problems go away, but his help comes at a steep price. How much will Alex pay to get her life back? Are some risks really worth taking?

  After recording the last interview of a month-long media extravaganza orchestrated by the brass, NYPD Detectives Chiara Corelli and P. J. Parker are hoping for time out of the spotlight working cold cases and/or solving low profile murders. But the brutal murder of Alessandra Moreau, a singer on track to becoming a superstar, in the living room of New York State Senator Leigh Drayman, a trans woman, is anything but. 
   
   
   
  Besides Drayman, only Moreau's twin sister and her wife knew she was a trans woman, so Corelli and Parker focus their attention on three suspects—the agent/manager stealing from her, a man from her attorney's office who assaulted her, and H, a rejected lover who she fears. 
   
   
   
  And when they find thirteen trans women murdered in exactly the manner as Moreau in just over two years, their focus changes and they enlist the senator's help to get the NYPD to set up a task force. 
   
   
   
  With the murder of two more trans women in New York City, the killer seems to be taunting them. But they are no closer to finding him then they were after Moreau was murdered. 
   
   
   
  As they dig deeper into those early murders, they eliminate suspects and begin to focus on the one with motive, means, and opportunity.
