Danger doesn't knock in Jamira Waters' world it slips in quietly, attaches itself to ordinary days, and turns them into nightmares.
What begins as holiday chaos in New York suddenly folds into something darker. A neighbor is beaten nearly to death. A friend disappears on the way home. A cousin is found murdered in a park. A coworker vanishes without a trace. And the violence stalking Jamira's life somehow keeps inching closer to the people she loves.
When her father is brutally attacked in the same manner, Jamira knows this isn't random it's deliberate. It's organized. It's personal.
But the police don't see a pattern. Her family won't tell the truth and a stack of Amazon packages each containing a stroller she never ordered keeps showing up like warnings written in cardboard.
Someone is watching her.
Someone is keeping score.
Someone has her family's names written on a list.
As Jamira fights to protect her parents, distance her loved ones, escape her toxic relationship, and outrun a fear she can't fully name, a deeper mystery surfaces one buried in her family's past, whispered about for decades, denied by everyone who knows the truth.
Because the person hunting her isn't a stranger.
They're connected to a secret her family swore never happened.
Now Jamira has one choice:
Follow the trail before she becomes the next missing face on the wall...
or be swallowed whole by a danger that's been waiting for her since before she was even born.
A gritty, unsettling, true-to-life urban thriller where the shadows feel familiar, the fear feels earned, and survival isn't guaranteed.
