Code For Murder: A Stacy Tavitt Thriller - Paperback

"Thoroughly engrossing, riveting, and filled with surprises." -Midwest Book Review

In the heart of Cleveland, Lieutenant Stacy Tavitt faces the chilling aftermath of an overzealous decision. Thrust into the shadows of a botched undercover operation, Stacy emerges from an attack that leaves her for dead in the icy embrace of the river. Six months of recovery later, she's back on the force, but her comeback case is as cold and perplexing as the waters she was rescued from. The city is reeling from the murder of Devon Baker, a star player for the Cleveland Browns, and with forensic evidence scarce, the mystery deepens.

Stacy, with her sharp instincts back in play, dives into the investigation, threading through a maze of dead ends and dangerous secrets. The killer, emboldened by Stacy's previous misstep, lurks in the shadows, weaving a sinister plot not just against her but those she holds dear. Each clue Stacy uncovers binds her closer to a truth too horrifying to conceive-the killer might be wearing a familiar face, one soaked in betrayal and hidden in plain sight.

As the investigation spirals into a deadly cat-and-mouse game, Stacy is forced to confront her past decisions and their haunting consequences. Can she outsmart a murderer who's always one step ahead, or will her second chance at justice slip through her fingers like the cold, elusive river currents?
