About the Book
Some secrets should stay buried...
Working as a Hollywood photographer means Riley Temple has
seen it all, but that theory is put to the test when she finds herself staring
at the chilling image of a dead woman. When her questions about the film's
origin results in an assault, a murder, and an attack on Riley herself, she
finds herself reluctantly turning to the only person who assures her he can
help: Detective Quinn Burton. Her history with the LAPD is complicated, but to
find those responsible for harming her friends and to protect those closest to
her, she's willing to do anything. Even trust a cop.
After more than a decade on the job, Quinn Burton knows a
dangerous situation when he sees it and Riley Temple is neck deep in trouble.
But not for the reason she thinks. Those pictures she stumbled onto could very
well overturn a notorious murder conviction--a conviction partially secured by
Quinn's own police commissioner father.
Quinn has always prided himself on being loyal, but seeing this case through
means he'll have to betray someone: his job, his family, or the woman he's
falling in love with.
As Quinn and Riley's relationship deepens, their
investigation reveals the false conviction is only a small part of a much
bigger conspiracy. They soon find themselves targeted by The Circle of the Red
Lily, a secret society that for decades has maintained influence and violent
control over Hollywood's powerful elite. A group that, until now, has remained
hidden in the shadows.
A group that will stop at nothing to keep their secrets
buried.
