THRILLER · BOOK 1

Freeze

Los Angeles. Beautiful. Deadly.

A new drug is spreading through Los Angeles. Its victims remain fully conscious—trapped inside their own bodies.

Detectives Alex Smith and David Stone are drawn into a case that takes them deep into the city’s dark side. Their first leads expose a network far bigger than either of them imagined.

Amid glamour, violence, and power, they close in on a truth that lies closer to home than they realize. And the further they go, the more dangerous it becomes—for everyone.

In Los Angeles, beauty can be deadly.

No price. No dealer. No way back.
