A murdered lawyer. A message carved into her chest. A ruthless killer who must be stopped.
The body of an ambitious trainee lawyer is found sprawled on the boardroom floor, blood pooling around her on the pristine cream carpet.
Etched across her chest is one word - CONTRACT.
Up-and-coming lawyer Maddy Kramer is determined to find out who killed her colleague, even though they weren't exactly best friends. Maddy's not your typical legal suit - she's not ruthless like her teammates who will do anything to get to the top.
But then there's a second corpse - another female lawyer. And this time inscribed on the body, the word CRIME.
Maddy must team up with Detective Jake Carver to get into the mind of the brutal murderer. The killer has their eye on another victim . . . and Maddy could be next.
Please note this book was previously published as The Scribe.

Detective Carver immediately spots her good sense and sound judgement, and he can't miss her extraordinary beauty either - but she rarely lets a man get close . . .
