Zee Morani's gut tells her it's murder when her new friend dies, but since Zee's still recovering from a recent battle with a deranged killer, the last thing she wants is to get involved in another homicide.

She's relieved when the police arrest a stalker who confesses to the accidental death, until she gets a text implying a connection to Believers Anonymous, a group waging war against the crippling effects of religious indoctrination.

Zee's not a cop, not even a PI. She's a columnist whose forte is challenging bureaucratic hypocrisy. Violence isn't usually part of her job, but exposing truth is in her blood. As she burrows into BA's tangled nest of relationships, she uncovers a growing list of suspects and motives. When new evidence confirms murder, she vows to make sure the police have the real culprit.

Zee's intuitive friend Fontina supports Zee's investigation, while Rico, a veteran crime reporter with whom Zee has rekindled an uncertain romance, wants to protect her, especially when a threat rachets the danger. As the truth becomes clear, Zee races to act-because she's the only one who knows and time is running out.
