A brand new series.
An iconic new team of detectives.
And new thrilling murders to solve.
Steve Wheeler enjoys his life as a retired police officer. Every now and then he takes on an investigation, but he prefers his familiar habits and routine: the pub quiz on Wednesdays, his favorite bench, his cat waiting for him when he gets home. His adventurous days are gone for good. The adrenaline now belongs to his daughter-in-law, Amy.
Amy Wheeler believes that adrenaline is good for the soul. As a personal security guard, she never stays in one place long enough to develop habits or a routine. For now, she is on a remote island, protecting the world-famous author Rosie D’Antonio. It’s supposed to be an easy job…
But a dead body, a bag of money, and a killer target Amy and force her to send an SOS to the only person she trusts—her father-in-law. And so begins a dizzying race around the world. Will Amy and Steve be able to stay one step ahead of their deadly enemy?

“It finally happened.
Andrew Fairbanks knew that one day he would become famous. And that day—a quiet, sunny Tuesday in early August—had finally arrived.
With so many years of fitness videos on Instagram, he had already gained many followers, of course, but never anything like this. This was crazy.”
“Andrew Fairbanks was found dead: shot in the head, tied with rope from a yacht, and thrown into the water, bobbing like a buoy in the Atlantic. There wasn’t a soul on the boat, not a trace of another human presence, with the only exception being a leather duffel bag containing nearly a million dollars.”
“Even for one day, though, what an incredible phase that was! If Andrew Fairbanks were still alive, he would be looking for a full-time manager. Book me more gigs, protein bars, teeth whitening clinics, maybe launch my own vodka? Yes, even for one day, everyone wanted a piece of Andrew Fairbanks. Although, after the sharks were done with him, there wasn’t much left.”
