Who can say no to a vulnerable woman who needs assistance? Certainly not Patrick Miles Atwater. But it may be the worst mistake he will ever make. Patrick, a private investigator, is a hero in Los Angeles. An ex-marine and ex-police officer, he's truly a stand-up guy. His duty, as he sees it, is to help the victims of monstrous men-and he takes that obligation seriously. When Rachel Stone Barbieri finds him at his local watering hole, she says she needs his help-but her motives are murky and her intentions unclear. Patrick knows he can't trust her, but at the same time, he finds he can't turn this intriguing woman away. Claiming she suspects her husband of having an affair, she wants to engage Patrick's services to confirm her suspicions-and despite his better judgment, Patrick takes the case. He was wary of her from the get-go, but even Patrick can't foresee the magnitude of trouble this simple case of adultery will lead to. Accused of murder and hunted by the police, will Los Angeles's hero uncover the truth and live another day-or will the woman in the yellow dress be his ultimate downfall?

“The story I am to tell you, are words that should never be told to anyone. Songs of despair and anguish – nothing more than silent screams from a secret world that was once sickened by all; has now risen up to rule our society. Like so much of my existence and those like me, our story begins at the moment of inception – the inauguration of the brotherhood, and carried forward through the curvature of our pain.” - The girl in the yellow dress A dystopian fantasy set within a society barren of any reason.

She’d been promised freedom on her eighteenth birthday, but instead of the idyllic life she imagined with her true love, Essex Henry, Pheby is forced to leave the only home she has ever known. She unexpectedly finds herself thrust into the bowels of slavery at the infamous Devil’s Half Acre, a jail in Richmond, Virginia, where the enslaved are broken, tortured, and sold every day. There, Pheby is exposed not just to her Jailer’s cruelty but also to his contradictions. To survive, Pheby will have to outwit him, and she soon faces the ultimate sacrifice.
