What's a name but a placeholder? And what makes any of ours flesh? Bonnie is a girl who's lived her life wanting, never getting what she needs. And what she desires most is the love of a man named Nicholas. Her long-time friend and partner in petty crime.Now, Bonnie has resolved to make her feelings known and begin living the life she's always wished for. With Nicholas by her side.But, when the time comes, Bonnie witnesses what she believes to be Nicholas betraying her with his former girlfriend. Bonnie plays the silent, shamed victim, yet again. Which doesn't make her resulting actions any less damaging.And, by the time Bonnie learns she was mistaken, and a life with Nicholas can still be had, her problems have become much worse. Both in number and in nature.Now, Bonnie's false friends, the police force, organised crime, a lethal name from the past, an ancient evil from a hidden world, and things much more bizarre and threatening stand in the way of her happiness.To realise her greatest wish, Bonnie will not only have to make amends with Nicholas, she'll also have to ensure they both survive the hell she's created and, if they escape, whatever worse lies beyond its borders. Things aren't as easy to repair as they were to destroy. And the stakes have only begun to rise. Watch out you don't trip and fall.

In every murder investigation, there are rules—how fast you learn them can mean the difference between life and death.Payden Beck begins his first week after graduating police academy as a phase-one field trainee under the tutelage of Richard LaMont, an experienced, older field-training officer (FTO) who distributes justice on his own terms and keeps the world at bay.When his FTO invites Payden home for dinner, and to meet his eccentric, much-younger wife, Ana, at the end of their first week working together, Payden feels as if he's living his dream. Richard has taken him under his wing. Even better, Ana approves.Richard is called in to work on a mysterious assignment over the weekend, but Payden is happy to stay at their home, per his request, and watch over Ana, even if he isn't quite sure why Richard has to leave. The weekend is pleasant, sterile, and he's able to return home on Sunday with another mark in his FTO's plus column, but....When Richard is found dead at his kitchen table on Monday morning, Payden's dream becomes a nightmare. While he can easily exclude himself as a suspect with his superiors, his time spent with Ana, and the strange relationships Richard has within the department, won't let him go quite so easily. Payden soon realises why his FTO was so intensely personal about his life, and the more he learns—with Ana by his side—the deeper the mystery of Richard's murder becomes.Nothing is ever what it seems, and every revelation in the investigation of Richard's murder leads to greater confusion. Things can seem perfect... even as they become inescapably horrifying.EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a crime novel sure to keep you glued to the page from first page to last, from the award-winning author of fiX.Books by Michael Golvach:10-30Bloody GulletsfiXHomeMissing PiecesSplit the MiddleMore Great Crime Fiction from Evolved Publishing:The "Duncan Cochrane" Series by David Hagerty"Forgive Me, Alex" by Lane DiamondThe "A Point Thriller" Series by Jeff AltabefThe "Syndicate-Born Trilogy" Series by K.M.
