Caught in Transition: Book 1 of the Caught Series

By Marcel Smithers

She's not the hero. She's not the villain. She's the fuse.

Lyla Banks is the last person you'd suspect - a composed assistant at police headquarters by day, and by night, the elusive thief dismantling the city's criminal underworld piece by piece. Every heist is flawless. Every escape, ghostlike. No cameras. No witnesses. No fingerprints.

When a street war brews between rival syndicates - each blaming the other for stolen contraband and planted evidence - Detective Troy Vincent is assigned to unravel the chaos. But he doesn't know the woman he's beginning to trust is the very phantom he's chasing.

As tensions rise and her final job nears, Lyla must walk a razor's edge between love and loyalty, freedom and exposure. One misstep could cost her everything.

Caught In Transition is a high-stakes, twist-filled crime thriller where loyalty is currency, secrets are weapons, and the most dangerous person in the room is the one you never see coming.
