Milford Haven has a dead man, and too many dangerous assumptions.

A carefully planned street killing draws Jess Allanby into a slow, politically charged investigation where every breakthrough creates new risk. At home, Warlow finds himself confronting a different kind of threat: a manufactured haunting designed to control a vulnerable woman and reshape a public narrative.

Both cases hinge on the same uncomfortable truth—cruelty doesn’t always look like rage. Sometimes it looks like strategy.
