A girl goes missing from a Beverly Hills parking lot at 4:17 on a Thursday afternoon. Three wealthy men arranged it. Two of them are dead within the week.
Seventeen-year-old Lily Sung is not what her kidnappers expected. Locked in a room in an industrial warehouse, she does what she always does: she watches. She counts. She builds a picture from the details no one thinks she'll notice-a cat bowl pushed to the left, an embroidered logo on a jacket, the forty-minute intervals of freight trucks she can't see but can feel through the walls. She already knows more than she's supposed to. The question is what to do with it.
Outside, Carter Flynn-the one man who arranged the logistics and lived to regret it-is trying to untangle two murders that the police have ruled accidents, a conspiracy that runs nine years deep, and the identity of the man who set all of it in motion. His only allies are a meticulous assistant who spent fourteen years not asking the right questions, and an orange cat named Oliver who is carrying evidence no one knows exists.
Some targets are never random. And some secrets are worth dying for-unless someone finds them first.
