On her way to San Francisco to find her brother, Caleb, who went
missing three months ago, Camriann Coulter meets Judith and Kenzie,
who both have their own mysteries to solve in the booming West
Coast city. The women decide to help each other, including rooming
together and working at Kenzie's cousin's chocolate factory.
Camri's search for her brother, an attorney, leads her deep into
the political corruption of the city--and into the acquaintance of
Patrick Murdock, a handsome Irishman who was saved from a false
murder charge by Caleb. Patrick challenges all of Camri's
privileged beliefs, but he knows more about what happened to her
brother than anyone else. Together, they move closer to the truth
behind Caleb's disappearance. But as the stakes rise and threats
loom, will Patrick be able to protect Camri from the dangers he
knows lie in the hidden places of the city?
The search for her missing brother leads to the most
dangerous part of the city . . .

attorney. But when three months go by without a word from the

has become of him.
Camri's search for her brother leads her deep into the political

to her brother, and he seems to know more about what happened to
Caleb than anyone else. As the two edge closer to the truth behind
Caleb's disappearance, they risk angering the powerful forces that
control the city. Can Camri trust Patrick to protect her from the
dangers that lie hidden in San Francisco's backstreets?
