Morgan Mori is thrilled when she is contacted by the wealthy and powerful Reynolds family to photograph their Christmas party. Coming back to her hometown, Morgan is looking forward to working and making a name for herself. The Reynolds family is shrouded in mystery and scandal after Clive Reynolds went missing twenty years earlier.

The same night she photographs the party, she witnesses a police officer being killed. The investigation into the murder turns up a “buried” clue. Investigator Ryan Hudson is tasked with solving the cold case of the missing mogul but also wants to solve the case of who killed his partner. Are the cases connected?

There is more than one mystery in this book. Morgan also has a past and secrets. But she is not alone, Ryan has a secret himself. Both characters search for answers as the tension mounts.

I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed the narrator. This book is atmospheric, dark, and captivating. I was all in, trying to do my own super sleuthing to solve the case(s). There are some things in this book which might be triggers for some.

Thank you to Macmillan Audio and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own.
