You really should stop leaving me evidence.
Adrian Vale makes his living erasing what other people would rather forget. Blood from marble. Fingerprints from glass. The last ugly traces of violence from luxury apartments owned by people rich enough to pay for discretion.
He has rules for surviving the work: notice everything, ask nothing, and never become part of the story.
Then a killer starts leaving gifts meant only for him.
Felix Arden is charming, theatrical, disturbingly cheerful-and responsible for a string of murders targeting some of the city's most corrupt elites. Instead of hiding from Adrian, Felix courts him with white roses, handwritten notes, and evidence exposing exactly why his victims were chosen.
Adrian knows what Felix is.
That should make staying away easier.
It doesn't.
Their strange orbit becomes impossible to ignore when Adrian's work leads him toward a network of corruption stretching through luxury businesses, private institutions, law enforcement, and people powerful enough to make inconvenient truths disappear. Suddenly Adrian is no longer the invisible cleaner arriving after the violence. Someone has noticed him, and the people watching are far less amused by his curiosity than Felix is.
Felix offers protection with a smile and blood on his hands. Adrian offers rules Felix has never had to follow.
No stalking without permission.
No entering Adrian's home uninvited.
No killing people simply because they upset him.
And absolutely no human body parts as gifts.
What begins as a terrifying fascination becomes an uneasy alliance filled with dangerous attraction, macabre humor, forensic secrets, and an intimacy neither man knows how to survive. But the closer Adrian gets to Felix, the harder it becomes to pretend neutrality will keep his hands clean-or that Felix is the only dangerous man in the room.
When loving a killer may be the safest choice Adrian has left, how much of himself is he willing to stain to choose that love freely?
