Everyone believes Lord Victor Ashworth died on an African safari. That is exactly what he needed them to think. Two years ago, Ashworth began his greatest deception: infiltrating a shadowy, numbered criminal society that operates in plain sight. Now known only as "Roger, " he has gained their trust. But when the organization plots its most audacious heist yet-targeting his own family's estate-Ashworth must walk a razor's edge.
Every move is monitored. Every shadow could hide an enemy. Trust is a liability, and a single misstep means a painful death. His only weapon is a brilliant mind and a secret safe engineered with a final, devastating failsafe. As the society's leader lures him into a final, deadly meeting, Ashworth must utter the words that will spring his trap. But in a world of masks and lies, the most dangerous secret is the one he never saw coming.
