A Cut Above

It isn't.

Beneath the mirrors, blow dryers, and polite smiles, something rotten is thriving. Whispers turn into warnings. Kind faces harden. And before the Greenbrooks can understand what's happening, their dream business becomes a front for something unthinkable; kidnapping and prostitution operating in plain sight.

Then one of their employees vanishes.

Marie Greenbrooks is no ordinary salon owner. Retired from the FBI, she recognizes the signs of an organized operation; and she knows how easily evil hides behind respectability. Ignoring the danger, Marie steps back into a world she thought she'd left behind, determined to expose whoever is pulling the strings.
To help dismantle the network from the inside, the FBI sends Peter, a skilled and dangerously charming agent undercover as a barber. As he digs deeper into the salon's secrets, his mission grows more complicated when he's assigned an unspoken second task: keep watch over Marie's daughter, Ellie, whose beauty may have already drawn the wrong kind of attention.

As lies unravel and loyalties fracture, the salon becomes a battleground where no one is who they seem, and where survival depends on uncovering the truth before the truth silences them forever.
