Someone wants Ellie gone before she can speak.
Someone who knows exactly how to get to her.

With her brother at her side and Joe stepping in as the one man she trusts to keep her safe, Ellie must uncover who's targeting her, and why, before the next attack finishes what the first one started. As danger escalates and secrets surface, the line between protector and something deeper begins to blur.
