Detective Duran thinks he's searching for a missing woman. He soon finds out he's pursuing the last remaining evidence of a CIA cover up. The police are looking for Velma Bloom, a young woman who has gone missing. All that's left of her is her car parked in front of a house containing two dead Russian men.

Answers come unexpectedly and from an unexpected source. Armed with her new knowledge, she sees her way to forging a new future. She only has one obstacle-making sure she stays alive. Now she has vanished, and rookie detective Jackson Duran is trying to find her. She hasn't left many traces, and everything Duran discovers about her only complicates his search. What he does learn leads him to some sinister truths he never thought he'd know, and would rather not know.

Enemies turned friends, friends turned lovers and a happy ending. Too cliché. Well, that’s how their story started, but love left them soon. Aarav Vinayak and Aaliya Fernandes were a couple whom everyone admired. They weren’t the ‘perfect couple.’ They used to have their fights and nerve-wracking moments, and yet, they stood by each other’s side, holding hands. After dating for seven years, they decide to get married and start their own family, but little did they know that marriage was going to be very different from dating. They promised to be there with each other through thick and thin, but they turned their backs when they needed each other the most. The thing that always completes a marriage and brings two partners close broke theirs and ripped them apart. There ‘I do’ turned into ‘What do I do now?’ They lost love soon after that one incident that happened to them a year after their marriage. After leading a meaningless marriage for a year and a half, they decide to get separated and file for divorce. Will Aarav and Aaliya be able to rediscover love on their journey of getting divorced, or will they end up discovering something new? The pages of ‘Don’t Walk Away’ hold the answers.

Noir master Scott Phillips's The Walkaway explores the far-reaching consequences of the deception and violence of its predecessor, The Ice Harvest. Summer 1989: Gunther Fahnstiel, once a tough cop who wasn’t averse to taking a little side money from a certain madam, has just escaped the dementia ward of his Wichita nursing home. He’s not exactly sure where he wants to go, but wherever it is, it has to do with the bag full of cash belonging to the man he accidentally backed over with his RV in 1979. During his search, Gunther begins to relive the violent fallout of that madam’s sex lottery forty years ago. As Gunther’s memories unravel, his past and present will collide in a devastating reckoning. This dark comedy, at once prequel and sequel to Phillips’s award-winning debut The Ice Harvest, proves that no walkaway can escape unscathed.
