Blood On The Wind
Fiona Cummings has spent a lifetime burying her past. Rising from the ash and grime of the city's poorest wards, she has clawed her way to the marble terraces of Prairie Avenue. Beside her husband, Edward, she stands at the summit of the Gilded Age, draped in velvet and shielded by the thrumming power of the Union Stockyards. But in a city built on slaughter, the higher one climbs, the more dazzling the fall.
The arrival of Oliver Dubois changes everything. Charming, destitute, and dangerously observant, Oliver steps off the train with a smile that hides a soul of cold calculation. He sees the cracks in the Cummings' perfect fa ade-the desperate loans, the shadowy contracts, and the fragile peace that holds their marriage together.
What begins as a reunion quickly darkens into a game of cat and mouse. As the summer heat bears down and the stench of the killing floors drifts on the wind, a web of deceit tightens around the estate. A murder in the fog, a missing inheritance, and a betrayal that strikes from within threaten to destroy everything Fiona has built.
Cornered by a sociopath and isolated by a society that values reputation over truth, Fiona must look inward to the street-smart girl she left behind. For in a world of gilded malice, the only way to survive a monster is to become something he never expected: a hunter.
