Before being assigned their first joint case, Katherine uncovers damning evidence against a major crime ring known as The Syndicate. The group controls key members of the D.C.

“K.M. Hodge got me hooked with Red on the Run. I LOVED the characters in the first book and was kind of mad at the ending (it’s good, I just get attached to fictional people) so I was excited to read this book and see what happened with everyone. Black and White Truth is even better than the first book!” ~ Kristy Young

The Syndicate doesn’t believe in divorce, but murder is another story.
“Wow! The Sally Ride Chronicle certainly does take you for a wild ride. KM Hodge does a great job with this prequel to ‘The Syndicate-Born Trilogy.’ Fast paced action, danger and thrills with a little romance will keep you wanting more.” ~ Hope Gerhardstein
Sally wants out—out of her marriage, out of the mob, out of Ocean City. An impossible dream. That is until the MDNA, a secret hacktivist group, invites her to join the ranks of their rebellion. The goal? Take down the criminal empire.
She’s no Jane Bond, but no one in her town suspects the quiet church-going mom is a threat, especially The Syndicate’s criminal defense attorney, Michael David, who’s got a thing for mysterious blondes. His love-’em-and-kill-’em exploits, and his penchant for causing witnesses to disappear, make him enemy number one for the hacktivist group. Sally’s mission sounds simple enough—destroy the lawyer’s life and make him pay—but....
Once she starts, there’ll be no turning back.
Follow Sally as she attempts the unthinkable—take down the largest crime ring in US history—in this prequel to “The Syndicate-Born Trilogy.”
