His crime was unforgivable, but the law protects him.

Mark & Billy Jo are back in this riveting romantic crime thriller about an unreported crime in the police chief's family in this new crossover series from NY Times & USA Today bestselling author Lorhainne Eckhart.

"If you ever overstep with my family again, not even Gail will be able to save your job. Then, I assure you, the closest you'll come to working in law enforcement again will be as a security guard at some mall." Exactly what Mark had expected. "Chief Tolly Shephard"

The law is designed to protect the innocent, but what happens when the police chief could be protecting a criminal?

If an alleged crime is reported to you, but no victim can be found, has a crime been committed? This is exactly the question Billy Jo McCabe asks Detective Mark Friessen when an anonymous woman approaches her and tells her about an unspeakable crime taking place right under the watch of the chief of police, in his own family.

They soon learn family is family, and the victim has been hiding her secret for years. But she's not just any victim: She's the niece of the chief of police, Tolly Shephard.

But when Mark and Billy Jo dig into the chief, his family, and the secret they're hiding they soon discover the players in this game are people who use the law to their advantage, and sometimes the law doesn't protect the innocent-and it has the best non disclosures money can buy.
