Armed with a masters degree in forensic science and impeccable instincts, Jordan has been able to balance her dueling motivations: breaking every big storyand giving a voice to the voiceless.From her time in Texas, shes covered the vilest of human behaviors but nothing has prepared her for Chicago.

Again and again, she is called to cover the murders of Black women, many of them sexually assaulted, most brutalized, and all of them quickly forgotten.All until Masey Jamesthe story that Jordan just cant shake, despite all efforts. A 15-year-old girl whose body was found in an abandoned lot, Masey has come to represent for Jordan all of the frustration and anger that her job often forces her to repress. Putting the rest of her work and her fraying personal life aside, Jordan does everything she can to give the story the coverage it desperately requires, and that a missing Black child would so rarely get.Theres a serial killer on the loose, Jordan believes, and hes hiding in plain sight.
