Detective Lauren Riley has learned that cold cases never truly disappear. They wait—in forgotten evidence rooms, abandoned files and the memories of people who believe they have escaped the past. But when a long-buried investigation leads Lauren back into a web of secrets, old loyalties and deadly lies, she discovers that time has protected more than one killer.
As Lauren follows a trail through Buffalo’s darkest corners, the pieces of the past begin to fit together. Someone has spent years keeping the truth hidden, and now every new discovery threatens to expose what really happened. But the closer Lauren gets to the answer, the more dangerous the investigation becomes.
With pressure mounting and the shadows of previous cases still following her, Lauren must trust her instincts before another secret is buried forever.
Under the cold moon, nothing stays hidden forever. And when the truth finally rises, someone will do anything to silence it.
