Twenty-Seven Calls - John Scheck
Escaping one of Philadelphia’s most blighted neighborhoods through
U.S. Army military police training, Elizabeth Owens rises to become a
detective in her hometown’s police department. But her career is quietly
sabotaged by James McMillan, a wealthy real estate mogul she once
arrested for assault. Now stuck in the Domestic Violence Unit—one of the
department’s least desirable assignments—Owens fights to protect
victims in a system that often fails them.
After a haunting
triple murder, Owens and her partner vow to step in when victims make
twenty-seven unanswered calls for help, starting with a serial abuser
linked to a missing woman. As Owens digs deeper, she uncovers McMillan’s
ongoing sabotage and evidence tying him to the disappearances of
multiple women. With the help of her partner, a crusading lawyer, and
McMillan’s abused mistress seeking revenge, Owens devises a bold plan to
take down the untouchable billionaire once and for all.
