FBI Agent Ellie Kline takes on the cases that others have set aside. Cold cases, stalled investigations, and murders where the obvious answers do not add up all find their way to her desk. Her persistence and eye for overlooked details make her effective where others have failed.

Mary Stone writes FBI thrillers featuring capable women who face both dangerous criminals and personal challenges. Ellie fits this mold while bringing her own distinctive approach to investigation. She trusts her instincts even when they lead her away from easy conclusions.

The series delivers fast-paced investigations with enough character depth to keep readers invested in Ellie beyond individual cases. Each book works as a standalone thriller while building on what came before.
