Description
A sealed chamber. A corpse with a twelve-year-old death certificate. A conspiracy that knows exactly where Detective Kim Moore’s daughter will be.
When a commuter train is halted beneath Chicago, police discover a body inside a maintenance room that has supposedly been sealed since a deadly terminal fire. The victim is Aaron Weller—a man Kim helped declare legally dead twelve years earlier. Beside him lies an old newspaper, while eleven names have been carved into the wall. Kim’s is one of them.
Paired with her sharp new partner, Detective Gary Hernandez, Kim reopens the case that nearly destroyed her career. Their investigation uncovers falsified reports, vanished evidence, secret patient transports, and a network protected from inside the police department. Every answer brings the danger closer to their families—and proves that someone has been preparing for Kim’s return to the case.
Then two daughters disappear.
To bring them home, Kim must decide whom she can trust, confront the mentor who taught her how to survive homicide, and expose a truth powerful people buried in fire. But the deeper she goes beneath Platform Nine, the clearer the warning becomes: the body was never meant to stay hidden. It was meant to summon her.
The Body Under Platform Nine is the first novel in The 11th District Homicides, a gripping Chicago police-procedural series featuring a new major murder in every book and continuing detectives, department politics, corruption, family stakes, and enemies who refuse to remain buried.
