Savannah was livid. Theo’s stubbornness had once again derailed her plans, and now she hadn’t even had a chance to present her case. To make matters worse, she’d been unceremoniously removed from her post and reassigned to Red Island. The decision was ridiculous. She’d excelled in her role, consistently outperforming expectations. Her superior claimed her reassignment had been “approved” by higher-ups, citing a supposed request she’d made to return to her hometown. But Savannah had never made such a request. Red Island? A sleepy place with a zero crime rate? She’d be twiddling her thumbs or napping in the station out of sheer boredom. Suspicion burned through her veins, and one name rose in her mind: Theo. Anger propelling her, she drove straight to Carter Tower, Theo’s office building.
