When a respected alderwoman guns down her longtime aide, a fiery Baptist preacher poisons a deacon mid-sermon, and a popular social media influencer livestreams a deadly assault—Chicago is sent reeling. The shock deepens when all three suspects confess without hesitation... and offer no reason why.​
 
Enter Trigger Brown, private detective and street-smart truth-seeker. She’s pulled into the chaos when an anonymous message arrives: “Prove their innocence in 72 hours or you’re next.”​
 
With no apparent connection between the killers, no clues to a shared motive, and a ticking clock hanging over her head, Trigger is forced to chase a shadowy conspiracy that blurs the lines between justice and manipulation, truth and spectacle. Every step forward peels back another layer of a city rotting beneath its power structures—and reveals just how deep the puppet strings go.​
 
But in a world where confessions are currency and violence is choreographed like theater, the question isn't just who did it—but why they were made to.​
 
Trigger’s got three killers to exonerate, a city full of suspects, and only 72 hours before she becomes the next headline.​
