About the story

Someone keeps saving her life. She still does not know his name.

An anonymous shipping manifest leads investigative journalist Remy deeper into the dealings of Harrow’s Point harbor. Sources stop answering. An apparently ordinary walk becomes dangerous. Each time the investigation brings her too close to trouble, a masked protector appears—and disappears before she can get answers.

Away from the waterfront, the quiet man who owns her boxing gym is becoming another question she cannot leave alone. Remy has a theory about the protector’s identity. Proof is harder to find, and the truth about the man may be as unsettling as the story she is pursuing.

An adult vigilante suspense romance told entirely from Remy’s perspective, so the uncertainty stays with her as she works out whom to trust.

From the opening pages

The tip came in an envelope with no return address, which in my line of work is either somebody’s idea of a joke or the only kind of mail worth opening.
