Cassandra Boucher, known as Zandra to the few she trusts, was born with a sharp mind, a sharper blade, and a past lined with silence. Raised between secrets and survival, she now operates inside a covert society buried beneath the surface of everyday life - a place known only as the Hidden District. Founded by Jean'Vieve DuBois, a woman who traded protest signs for battle plans, this underground network fights for those failed by the system, forgotten by justice, and erased by red lines.

 

Zandra wears many coats - one of them being culinary genius - but her chef's jacket is stitched with blood. Her "clients" don't book appointments; they beg for salvation. Whether it's confronting a corrupt official or avenging the murder of her best friend's son, Zandra blends in, strikes hard, and disappears without a trace.

 

But as she unearths layers of betrayal, generational wounds, and a conspiracy meant to silence her circle for good, Zandra learns that power always comes with a cost. Especially when enemies realize they can't touch her - but they can destroy the ones she loves.

 

Hidden District is a searing, genre-bending thriller that fuses psychological depth, dark humor, and a deadly sisterhood of justice-seekers. In these pages, survival is strategy, legacy is war, and the streets don't forget.
