On a cold afternoon on the North Shore of Massachusetts, the body of Ellen Shepard is found. She leaves no family. She leaves no note. And she leaves vacant her position as the general manager of the notoriously brutal Majestic Airlines operation at Boston's airport.
From the moment Alex Shanahan takes control of the operation, she is pulled into the menacing intrigue of her predecessor's death. She is welcomed by an obscene depiction of Ellen's dead body - a warning that secrets can kill and that once she knows them it will already too late.
But Alex wants to know the truth. She follows the trail of corruption and betrayal from the loading ramp to the airline's executive suites. What she uncovers could bankrupt the airline and destroy the lives and careers of everyone involved. It could also cost Alex her life . . .
