Set against the backdrop of Manhattan and Queens, “The Wrong Station” is tale of unexpected twists and lethal truths.
Lorna Raven, a seasoned videographer, finds herself disastrously mired in a freakish plot involving two dead bodies, Russian agents, a rogue ATF operator, and murderers bent on killing her to protect their identities. What begins as the simple mistake of getting off at the wrong train station spirals into a harrowing adventure involving mysterious murders in Queens.
Seeking to unravel the mystery, she is unexpectedly reunited with Jefferson, an ATF agent, and her ex-lover, with whom she shares a tumultuous past and unresolved feelings. As they find themselves thrust back together, old sparks reignite against the gritty backdrop of New York City’s underbelly. Jefferson, with his complex blend of charisma and secrecy, becomes Lorna’s ally and a source of conflict as the investigation forces them to confront the remnants of their past relationship while trying to keep Lorna alive.
What Lorna uncovers moves her closer to the heart of a dark conspiracy as she navigates through layers of conspiracy. Every decision is as dangerous personally as it is professionally. Set against a backdrop of urban danger, her journey explores what it means to risk everything for love and truth. Every decision could be fatal in her relentless pursuit of truth amid deception, where trusting the wrong ally means a certain death.
