Synopsis

A rookie PI. A city full of secrets. One deadly game she may not survive.

When rookie private investigator Cassie Maddox takes on her first big case in the gritty streets of Lenape City, she stumbles into a web of corruption, betrayal, and murder.

What begins as a simple job spirals into a dangerous cat-and-mouse chase with the city's most powerful figures.

Haunted by her father's legacy as a decorated detective, Cassie is determined to prove herself—even if it means uncovering secrets that cut too close to home.

To find the truth, she must risk everything: her independence, her family, and maybe even her life.
