Detective Ethan Cole wakes in a hospital with no memory and a city screaming for answers. A brutal attack left him battered and stripped of his past, but one thing remains clear-he was on the verge of solving a high-profile murder: the shocking death of Elizabeth Chaucer, a powerful philanthropist whose unfinished secrets could tear Stonebridge apart.
As Ethan struggles to piece together his fractured memories, he stumbles onto a hidden network of corruption reaching from back-alley deals to the highest seats of power. Threatened orchard families, rigged city contracts, and an elusive killer named Gilroy all point to a conspiracy willing to do anything-ambushes, frame-jobs, even murder-to protect themselves. With every clue he recovers, Ethan inches closer to the truth...and into the crosshairs of those desperate to silence him.
This is a fast-paced detective thriller perfect for readers who want an amnesia-driven investigation, a relentless sense of danger, and a final showdown where the cost of justice may be everything. If you crave conspiracies, moral dilemmas, and a hero who must conquer his own lost identity to save a city on the brink, then follow Ethan Cole into Stonebridge's darkest shadows-where every revelation could be his last.
