Porter Wren is a Manhattan tabloid writer with an appetite for scandal. On the beat he sells murder, tragedy, and anything that passes for the truth. At home, he is a dedicated husband and father. But when Caroline, a seductive stranger asks him to dig into the unsolved murder of her filmmaker husband Simon, he is drawn into a very nasty case of sexual obsession and blackmail--one that threatens his job, his marriage, and his life.

VIBE

A slick, morally gray descent into the underbelly of Manhattan. It's a smoke-filled room of temptation, where every shadow hides a secret and every whispered word is a potential trap. The city itself feels like a character, pulsing with dangerous allure.
