The system was never supposed to exist.
It decided outcomes before cases ever reached a courtroom.
Witnesses disappeared. Evidence shifted. Decisions were made long before anyone had a chance to fight back.
And then-
Bellamy and Ash broke it.
Now the system is gone.
But what it left behind is worse.
Copycats.
Imitations.
People trying to recreate something they never understood.
And they're getting it wrong.
Badly.
When a witness vanishes in a sloppy, violent setup that looks nothing like the precision of the original system, Bellamy and Ash know exactly what they're dealing with-residual damage. The kind that spreads fast, hits hard, and doesn't follow rules.
This isn't about stopping a hidden network anymore.
This is about cleaning up what happens after control disappears.
One case at a time.
No safety net.
No guarantees.
No system left to blame.
Just decisions-and the consequences that come with them.
HARD TERMS is a relentless, high-stakes thriller that pushes the Bellamy & Ash series into its most dangerous territory yet-where the real threat isn't control... it's what happens when it's gone.
If you like sharp dialogue, fast pacing, and grounded, no-nonsense crime fiction where every move has weight, this is the book that hits hardest.
Because this time-
there's nothing behind the curtain.
Only what people choose to do next
