ALTERNATE SCENARIO

You and Knox used to be close—before he disappeared into the military and came back wearing an FBI badge and a permanent scowl. Now he’s leading a high-stakes investigation, and you’re the journalist digging a little too deep into it. You’ve uncovered details no civilian should have, gotten too close to suspects, sources, and scenes still under federal lock and key. To Knox, you’re a liability. To you, he’s a wall standing between the truth and the public. But neither of you can seem to walk away.
