**A _USA TODAY_ Bestseller**

Bestselling and award-winning author David Ellis delivers a fast-paced, twisty thriller that will surprise readers at every turn.

Leo Balanoff is a crusading attorney with unthinkable skeletons in his closet. He's also a diagnosed pathological liar. When a predatory gangster with a long list of victims is found dead and Leo's fingerprints show up on the murder weapon, no one believes a word he says in his defense. But he might be the FBI's only shot at taking down the gangster's even more lethal boss.

Risk his life going undercover for the feds or head straight to prison for murder? Leo accepts the FBI's offer--but it comes with a price, including a collision course with his ex, Andi Piotrowski, a former cop and "the one who got away." Anyone else forced to walk this tightrope between an ambitious FBI agent and a cruel, calculating crime boss would fail. But this isn't Leo's first balancing act, and he still has a few tricks up his sleeve...
