Dead Innocent

By Anna Maurice

She pulled the trigger-and shot the wrong man. Or did she?

Veteran hostage negotiator Madeline Graves made one decision in a moment of chaos, and it shattered her career, her reputation, and the trust of a city already on edge. The man she killed was unarmed. A bystander.The media called it a tragic mistake. Her department called it a suspension.

But Madeline isn't explaining herself-because she saw something no one else did.

As the investigation spirals and the public demands answers, Madeline begins her own search into the man she shot... and the truths he died with. What she uncovers pulls her into a deeper conspiracy-one rooted in deception, moral corruption, and buried secrets that go far beyond one bad call.

Now, with her sanity questioned and her badge stripped, Madeline must decide how far she's willing to go for justice. Because some truths don't set you free.

Some truths destroy everything.

Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn, Karin Slaughter, and Tana French, Dead Innocent is a razor-sharp psychological thriller that dares to ask: what if the wrong choice was the only one that made sense?
