As the superintendent of a Massachusetts prison halfway house, Natalie Price thought she'd seen it all. But when the death of a beautiful Boston socialite makes breaking news, Natalie is drawn into one of the biggest scandals of her career. Headlines reveal that the victim is a member of a secretive, high-class call girl service and it seems that her death was related to these extra-curricular activities. When a group of extremely powerful men are implicated as her clients, the question on everyone's mind becomes, Is one of these pillars of society her murderer? In fact, one of the men unmasked by the media is Natalie Price's boss, Deputy Commissioner of Corrections Steven Carlyle. Nat and Carlyle don't exactly get along, but she wonders if he's capable of murder. With a dead young woman front and center in Nat's mind, and the promise of more to follow, she heads undercover into a seedy and dangerous world, putting her own life at risk in order to discover the truth.
