Murder in Alphabet City

Detective Jane Bauer, newly promoted within the NYPD, returns to work after a near-fatal encounter with a killer, only to face a challenging cold case. Eight years prior, Anderson Stratton, diagnosed with schizophrenia, was found dead in his apartment, initially ruled a suicide—though his sister Flavia Constantine has never accepted this verdict. As Jane and her team reopen the investigation, they uncover links to another grim suicide, leading to a deeper and more disturbing truth, where Jane again confronts life-threatening danger.
