A buried body near Carson City reopens a cold case—and leads Detective Viv Reyes to two more disappearances, a failed tech empire, and a professional killer hiding in the shadows. As the investigation moves from the Nevada wilderness to the dark web, Viv discovers that the truth is more dangerous than the grave that concealed it.
In the Nevada wilderness, some bodies are meant never to be found.
When hikers and their dog discover skeletal remains near Carson City, Detective Viv Reyes is assigned what first appears to be a long-buried missing person case. The victim is soon identified as Ryan Wilson, a gifted technology engineer who vanished three years earlier during a corporate hiking trip. But Ryan’s death is only the beginning.
Viv’s investigation uncovers two more missing men, each tied to the high-stakes world of technology startups, venture capital, and Silicon Valley ambition. The cases were separated by time, geography, and circumstance—until Viv sees the pattern others missed.
As Viv and her team follow the evidence from cold case files to dark web networks, the list of suspects grows: a disgraced entrepreneur, a grieving widow, a ruthless investor, and a woman with secrets of her own. Yet every answer leads to another question, and every motive seems to conceal a deeper betrayal.
