Moment of Truth

Blood runs thicker than water-but revenge runs deeper than both.

Ella Perri thought she knew every dark corner of her family's history. But when her uncle Luca emerges from the shadows, consumed by a volcanic need for vengeance, she realizes just how wrong she was. Now she must use every skill at her disposal to stop a man who isn't just her flesh and blood-he's a master manipulator with nothing left to lose.

As Luca orchestrates a campaign of terror against those who wronged him, Ella finds herself in a deadly game of cat and mouse with the one person who taught her everything she knows about deception. When he kidnaps an innocent woman, the stakes skyrocket-every minute counts and a single misstep could mean the difference between life and death. Ella must unravel a web of family secrets and betrayal to figure out his next move before he takes another life.

But Luca isn't just plotting revenge-he's waging psychological warfare. With each calculated strike against his enemies, he draws closer to destroying everything Ella holds dear. As time runs out for his captive and the body count rises, one question haunts her: can she bring down the monster who shares her blood without becoming one herself?

Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Gillian Flynn, this pulse-pounding thriller explores the razor's edge between justice and vengeance, where family ties become deadly bonds and the greatest dangers lie in the hearts of those we love most.
