Focus on Deception

Her picture-perfect life is a lie.

The target on her back is real.

In a world of PTA meetings, soccer games and wine moms, Stella Meyers fits right in. No one in her ritzy Connecticut suburb suspects the photographer who captures weddings, parties and fundraisers by day is robbing people blind at night.

Stella lives for the thrill, but her longtime business partner and mentor thinks it’s time for her to stop taking risks and go legit.

After an unexpectedly exhilarating date with her daughter’s new teacher, a 401k and steady paycheck start to look more enticing. Until a ruthless blackmailer uncovers Stella’s true identity and threatens her daughter…

Then all bets are off.

Coming Fall 2025
