In lovely downtown Savannah, 24-year-old law student Naomi Scott is killed by an unseen gunman, and crime reporter Harper McClain feels like the corpse has a familiar face. The police have three suspects: Naomi's boyfriend, who has a criminal past; her boss, who has stalked women before; and the district attorney's son, whom Naomi dated. All three men claim to love her, but could one of them be her killer? With the newspaper office facing more layoffs, Harper is already under pressure, and as she delves into this second case (after The Echo Killing), she begins to realize that someone is watching her every move.
