BLURB Ashlynn Deters never wanted to be a hero. As a forensic accountant for a mid-tier firm in Manhattan, her job was simple: find discrepancies, file reports, stay invisible. After clawing her way out of foster care and putting herself through night school, invisibility was her survival strategy. She kept her head down, paid her bills on time, and asked no questions about the high-profile clients her firm served. But when a routine audit of a Brooklyn real estate development reveals a money-laundering operation spanning three continents, Ashlynn discovers something that makes her blood run cold: the digital fingerprints of a federal agent buried deep in the corrupted files. Someone in the FBI is dirty. And they know she knows. Within forty-eight hours, her apartment is ransacked, her mentor is found dead in an "accidental" car crash, and two men in suits are following her every move. Ashlynn has something everyone wants—an encrypted hard drive containing evidence that could topple both the mafia and corrupt federal agents. She just doesn't know who to trust with it.
