"The depths of Manhattan's secretive Rockefeller University are explored in this thriller about the deep--and often deadly--reverberations of past sins. Assistant DA Alexandra Cooper of the Manhattan Sex Crimes Unit is finally back at work following a leave of absence, and not a moment too soon. With more women feeling empowered to name their abusers, Alex is eager to return to the courtroom to do what she does best. But even she can't anticipate the complexity of her first case when she meets Lucy, a young woman who testified years earlier at a landmark federal trial and now reveals that she was sexually assaulted by a prominent official during that time.

But not even the greatest minds in the city can help her when unearthed secrets begin to collide in dangerous ways. and unless she can uncover the truth, the life-saving facility just may become her grave"--
