She came to investigate him. He already had her file. The deeper she digs, the more she wonders who's actually investigating whom.
Forensic accountant Cara Donati has built federal cases from document trails for six years — never meeting a subject, always working from the outside. When she's embedded in the Ferrara Group's legitimate businesses as an independent auditor, she expects resistance. What she finds instead is a man who opens every door before she reaches it and watches her from the back of every room. The financial architecture is immaculate — not by luck, but by design: someone inside built a labyrinth around the criminal infrastructure with the precision of someone who knew exactly where every investigator would look. Eight weeks in, Cara finds the layer beneath the layer. What she cannot account for is how Marco Ferrara knew which records she would reach before she reached them, or why she found his handwriting on a page that should not exist. He has been four moves ahead of her since day one. The question she cannot stop asking: which one of them is the real target?
