“Isabel had some dealings with the Teskas back in the day. And Frank is fresh out of prison and just after murdering his brother,” she reminded him. “He’s right to be on edge.”

Summary
After the attack by the masked assailants, Lucy’s world is turned upside down. Consumed by unanswered questions she embarks on a relentless quest that uncovers a web of deceit, each step she takes unearthing a new layer of deception.
As Lucy delves deeper into the enigmatic puzzle, she encounters a murky organisation with a hidden agenda, manipulative figures lurking in the shadows, and unexpected allies with their own secrets to guard. The boundaries between truth and fiction blur, and Lucy must navigate treacherous paths where danger lurks at every turn.

“Okay. Fine. I’ll meet you at the hospital. After the muster. Deal?” He reached out his other hand to her, cupping her face in the pocket of his palms and she should have kissed him then.
