This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

When the system fails, how far would you go?

Twenty-four-year-old nursing student Rachel Callahan has always believed in doing things the right way—until her sixteen-year-old sister Maya disappears with a man she met online.

The police say Maya's a runaway. The FBI won't investigate. Everyone tells Rachel to wait, to trust the system, to let the professionals handle it.

But Rachel knows her sister is in danger. And with every passing day, the chances of finding Maya alive grow slimmer.

Desperate and running out of time, Rachel hires Jack Herrera, a disgraced ex-Border Patrol agent haunted by his past failures. Together, they follow a trail of lies and violence from Dallas strip clubs to Houston warehouses, uncovering a trafficking network that operates in plain sight—protected by money, power, and a justice system that looks the other way.

To save her sister, Rachel will have to break every law she once believed in. She'll lose her career, her future, and her faith in the institutions she trusted. But when the system fails the people it's supposed to protect, sometimes the only choice left is to become what the system fears most.

A gritty, unflinching thriller about the erosion of faith, the cost of justice, and the bonds that refuse to break—even when everything else does.

Perfect for readers of Gone Baby Gone, The Night Of, and No Country for Old Men.
