Description
Renata Richardson hoped to live a quiet, unremarkable life. Educated in research and information science, she was more comfortable tracing patterns through data than drawing attention to herself.
That changes when a summer job on a Greek island ends in a brutal crime against her -- one she reports to the local police, only to be told there isn't enough evidence to act. When she returns to her apartment on the island, she finds a suitcase containing one million dollars waiting for her.
The message is unmistakable: stay silent.
Renata refuses.
Instead of disappearing, she begins an investigation -- one that starts with a flight manifest and a private jet that shouldn't exist. Using public records, aviation databases, financial disclosures, and the kind of patient research most people overlook, Renata starts to identify the men behind the payoff.
Wealthy. Careful. Untouchable... or so they believe.
As she follows the trail across the United States, Renata becomes someone else entirely. She adopts new identities, blends into exclusive spaces, and learns the skills she needs to stay ahead of the people she's hunting. What appears, on the surface, to be a string of isolated accidents begins to form a pattern -- one only a determined investigator would notice.
FBI Special Agent Savannah Sturgeon does.
While local authorities see coincidence and misfortune, Sturgeon sees structure. A repeating methodology. A single unseen hand moving from city to city. As she pieces together the same trail Renata is following, the distance between hunter and hunted begins to close.
Both women are working from the same evidence. Both are building the same list.
And as Renata draws closer to the architect behind the operation that tried to buy her silence, Sturgeon realizes the truth: this isn't a crime spree fueled by impulse or rage. It's a calculated campaign -- one that was planned long before the first name was crossed off.
The List is a tense, intelligent crime thriller about power, money, and the price of silence -- where every answer uncovers a deeper conspiracy, and justice is never as simple as it seems.
