The Fault Line: Book 10
Emily Herr

To fight a ghost who knows her every weakness, Ava must become a monster herself. She fakes a catastrophic breakdown, seemingly betraying her wife, her sisters, and every vow she has ever made. Ascending to the throne of a global criminal empire, she surrounds herself with enemies and pushes her family away in a brilliant, terrifying, and heartbreaking performance designed to lure the puppeteer from the shadows.
Trapped and forced to watch from the sidelines, Kacey and the Shield Line believe they have lost their queen to the darkness. A devastating fault line cracks through the heart of their family, leaving them to question everything they thought they knew about loyalty and love. As Ava walks a razor's edge between deception and damnation, she must decide if the price of protecting her family is becoming the one thing they can never forgive.
Is Ava's gambit a masterstroke of strategy, or has the woman they love finally been consumed by the crown she was forced to wear? In The Fault Line, the price of victory may be the family itself.
