In her former life as an FBI agent in Oakland, California, June Lyons didn't flinch at tough assignments investigating gangs. But this hot and weary summer, she finds herself on the sidelines of the action, fruitlessly searching through a boiling hot storage facility for evidence of a counterfeiter.

When June's lead on the forger becomes a dead end, and her personal life threatens to overwhelm, she's ready to surrender to the sweltering heat-fighting back when she finds out that the stakes are much higher than she realized.

In a case where nothing is as it seems, it's up to June to hit the reset button...making a deal for a criminal, and for herself.
