For Detective Ebony Jones, crime is always personal. But this time, it strikes too close to home.

A pop-up thunderstorm and a couple’s ill-fated kayak trip. The woman miraculously made it back to shore, but her fiancé remains missing.

The investigation leads them through the dark worlds of social media, online sports betting, and extreme sports. Along the way, they uncover lies and betrayals, and gather a list of dangerous suspects who are all linked to the accident survivor, Kyle’s mysterious fiancée.

But the evidence is as murky as the secretive Hudson River. Only the river knows whether Kyle’s untimely death was an accident, a suicide, or something more sinister.
