Cole Nash

He investigated a murder for thirty-one days before he realized the victim was supposed to be him.
Cole Nash doesn't work like other investigators. Since a near-fatal accident left him with a mind that processes patterns faster than he can explain, he's built a career reading what others miss - the geometry of a lie, the weight of a silence, the exact moment a corporate executive decides you know too much.
When Emma Schulz, a twenty-eight-year-old pharmaceutical analyst, turns up dead on the banks of the Hudson River, Nash takes the case. What looks like an isolated tragedy unravels into something far larger: a falsified clinical drug trial, a network of buried evidence, and a pharmaceutical company willing to eliminate anyone who gets close to the truth.
But the deeper Nash digs, the more the investigation stops being about Emma - and starts being about him.
The Anomaly is a hard-edged procedural thriller set in New York and New Jersey, built on corporate crime, institutional silence, and one man's refusal to stop pulling the thread - even when the thread leads back to his own name.
