Synopsis

A Journalist. A Murder. A Deadly Truth.

For fans of Michael Connelly, Dennis Lehane, and Robert Crais comes a gritty crime thriller set in the heart of Montreal's criminal underworld.

Denny Durant's life is falling apart. His marriage is over, his bank account is empty, and his journalism career is circling the drain. When he accepts what seems like a straightforward assignment—covering how Montreal strip clubs are suffering through the NHL lockout—he's just trying to pay the rent.

Then a woman dies of an overdose right in front of him.

Everyone says it was an accident. But Martine, a beautiful dancer, knows better.

She believes Gloria was murdered. And despite every instinct telling him to walk away, Denny can't let it go. As he digs deeper, he uncovers a web of corruption connecting the club to organized crime, drug trafficking, and a twenty-year-old disappearance that someone desperately wants to keep buried.

The deeper he digs, the more dangerous it becomes.

When Martine vanishes and threatening phone calls target Denny's children, the investigation becomes personal. Hunted by a sadistic enforcer and betrayed at every turn, Denny must navigate Montreal's criminal underworld to find Martine before it's too late. But the truth he's chasing could cost him everything—his career, his family, and his life.

In Montreal's streets, some stories are worth killing for.
