In Ravenholt, the rain never cleanses the streets. It drowns them.
A dead fighter. A missing boy. A drug that burns like magic.
Detective Selene Rowan walks the city with a badge on her belt and a sharp pain behind her eyes. When a retired pit fighter is found dead with a shredded heart and veins filled with Scorch, the police dismiss it as a standard overdose. Selene feels the cold, sharp static of an execution.
The man on the pavement carried a fortune in his pocket and a lifetime of secrets in his scars. He was the only shield standing between the predatory crime lord Anthony Graves and two brothers with nowhere left to hide.
With Dane—a wolf-shifter partner who treats police procedure as a suggestion—Selene must descend into the city’s gut to break Graves’s grip. But in a place built on blood and broken promises, saving the boys requires more than police work. It requires stepping back into the shadows she knows too well.
Before the dusk falls, the copper rain claims its due.
