Silent Watch

Caleb Rourke knows how dangerous the truth can be. The former NSA analyst turned whistleblower lost his career exposing surveillance abuses. Now he tracks information warfare for a covert unit that values what he sacrificed. When erased articles and suppressed stories point to a small Florida town, he follows the digital breadcrumbs to Blossom Springs.

Harper Wynn is done hiding. The investigative journalist went underground after her source was murdered and the story was killed. She's spent months as a ghost, but the corruption she uncovered didn't disappear—it just got better at hiding. She's come to Blossom Springs to finish what she started, even if it kills her.

Caleb recognizes Harper immediately. Not her face—that's forgettable by design—but her patterns. She's chasing the same story he's tracking, and she's about to get herself killed doing it. He should maintain distance. Instead, he finds himself shadowing a woman as determined as she is reckless.

When intimidation turns to direct threats, Caleb and Harper must work together to expose a conspiracy that controls what an entire town knows. But trusting each other means revealing who they really are. For two people built on secrets, that might be the most dangerous truth of all.
