It's summer 2014 and Laura Applegate, a young private investigator, is about to face her first life-or-death case. The private investigator has been assigned her first overseas job—a high profile embezzlement case in Zurich, Switzerland for Cashway Investment Bank. Before Laura gets to interview her leading suspects, she is kidnapped by a pair of human traffickers, and things only continue to heat up from there! After Laura escapes her kidnappers, she and her colleagues dig into the details of the case, additional suspects come to light and unscrupulous deals are cut in the shadows. But when the danger escalates as the truth unravels, can Laura outwit the ruthless attempted murders, bring the embezzlers to justice, and prove she's more than just a survivor––she's the real deal?
