The Dead Don't Tell

When her closest friend is killed undercover, going back in isn’t about justice—it’s payback. Private investigator Jenna Wyatt walked away from undercover work years ago. But when GBI Agent Sierra Malone—her closest friend and former colleague—is found dead during a covert operation inside Atlanta's affluent Morningside neighborhood, Jenna knows the case won't solve itself. Sierra was embedded in a high-end prostitution ring operating from luxury Airbnb rentals, serving some of the city's most powerful men. Now she's gone, the investigation is stalled, and someone wants it buried. Jenna's not letting that happen. Partnering with former NCIS agent Jack Parks, Jenna goes back undercover—this time posing as an escort with Parks as her handler. The deeper they infiltrate the network of boutique spas and upscale fronts masking the exploitation, the clearer it becomes: this isn't just organized crime. It's protected crime, shielded by money, influence, and people who will do anything to keep their names clean… A gritty Atlanta crime thriller from USA Today bestselling author Carolyn Ridder Aspenson. Perfect for fans of Karin Slaughter, Tami Hoag, and Lisa Gardner. ___________________ Praise for Carolyn Ridder Aspenson: “Intelligent, clever and snarky, PI Jenna Wyatt is a woman you don’t want to cross.” —Bruce Robert Coffin, bestselling author of Crimson Thaw "Utterly compelling and taut with tension, Carolyn Ridder Aspenson delivers another must-read series." —Ava Roberts, author of The Perfect Boyfriend “With more twists and turns, bumps and crashes than an Atlanta highway at rush hour, Carolyn Ridder Aspenson's latest series will take your breath away.” —Shannon Baker, award-winning author of Stripped Bare
