The wildly popular podcast Not Forgotten has finally led to the arrest of a suspect in the Milwaukee Millennium Murders. Researcher Jo Lewis should be over the moon with that success, but instead she's troubled. Not Forgotten's hosts ran with the first lead, but they missed a huge part of the story. Jo's convinced that the man currently awaiting trial isn't responsible for all of the murders. Everyone who followed along with the podcast and did their own sleuthing is convinced the Milwaukee police finally have their man, so Jo needs indisputable proof before she can make her case.
She can't turn to friends-what friends? They betrayed her with the podcast-or family on this one, so all her hope gets pinned on a stranger: Jamie Whittaker, food truck entrepreneur, late forties, and single. There's no way Jo can be entirely sure he's not the killer she's looking for, and she really should be more cautious about meeting up with a stranger, but she's desperate. This is her last chance to prevent an injustice that's far more personal than she'd like to admit.
