About this ebook

"It's not the crime that kills you – it's the cover-up."

When college basketball coach Malik Shaw goes missing after a family tragedy, it looks like just another retired athlete gone off the rails. But Malik's childhood friend, private security specialist Ty Johnson, quickly begins to suspect that there is more to it.

Chasing the truth, Ty, along with his business partner, Ryan Lock, begin to uncover a sinister conspiracy of silence in a sleepy Minnesota college town.

This book is amazing. The friendship between Ty and Malik is heart warming. However I feel like this should be a Ty Johnson novel because this novel is centred around him and his best friend.
