Days after sending rejection letters to four would-be authors, literary agent Madison Holmes is found murdered; the victim of a brutal attack in her home. Lieutenant-Detective Toni Damianois assigned to the high-profile case, much the chagrin of the more seasoned detectives in her division. Eager to close her first major case, Damianois discovers the murder weapon – a boxed manuscript – mere hours into the investigation, but is left wondering how a simple book could lead to such a vicious crime.
