Beyond Tarnish

Katherine Carson has been building a career in front of a door she closed eight years ago. But when her apprentice's aunt is taken, the case gets personal in a way nothing has been since Daniel.

Carson Investigations races to find Maya before the clock runs out. All they have are suspects without motives and clues without connections.

Every thread runs through Radcliffe Jewelers. Fraud. Theft. A four-month-old murder. And a federal crime they can't hand off without alerting the kidnappers.

The case demands everything Katherine has. The skills she smothered, the instincts she starved, and the pieces of herself she buried with her husband.

Some things can't be polished away. Others need scouring.

Because with a villain this volatile, there's no line he won't cross to keep his reputation sparkling.
