He needed rent money. He found a fortune worth killing for.

A broke rideshare driver. A murdered passenger. A bloodied USB drive that could unlock twenty-seven million dollars. Evan Cole has a chance to change his life—if the men hunting him don’t end it first.

Five thousand dollars for one ride. Evan thought his prayers had been answered until someone gunned down his passenger.

Evan panics, grabs a bloodied USB drive, and runs.

The drive could give him access to twenty-seven million dollars. But the killers want it back, and a detective is picking apart the story he told her. Every lie makes him look guiltier. Every attempt to cover his tracks leaves him with more to hide.

Handing over the drive might be his best chance of staying alive.

But Evan is tired of barely getting by. And he thinks he’s figured out how to keep the money.
