In New York City a dark case unfolds.
Forensic entomologist Dr Vanessa Marwood is settling into her new role in Manhattan when she's faced with a chilling case: an Oscar-winning actress has been found dead, poisoned by a glittering hair clip adorned with a live beetle.
As a second high-profile death emerges - a fashion designer poisoned by an insect-encrusted watch - shockwaves run through New York's elite.
No stranger to the illegal trade of exotic insects and their use in status jewellery, Vanessa teams up with maverick NYPD detective Ru Hoshino to catch this cruel killer before they strike again. The case quickly unravels the city's dark underbelly - revealing a world of untouchable power and criminality.
When their investigation leads to the home of one of her estranged mother's old friends, things take an even darker turn for Vanessa, and she will have to face her past to make sense of the terrifying present.
Fans of Angela Marsons, Patricia Cornwell and Cara Hunter will be absolutely gripped until the final, breathtaking twist.
