About the New York Confidential series
New York Confidential is a five-book romantic-suspense series by Heather Graham following a loose connection of New York City-based investigators -- police detectives, security consultants and federal agents -- across self-contained cases with a consistent Manhattan backdrop. Flawless (2016) opens the series with a case centered on the Diamond District; A Perfect Obsession (2017), A Dangerous Game (2018), A Lethal Legacy (2019) and The Final Deception (2020) continue with new leads and cases in each entry rather than following one continuing couple across the whole series, in the pattern common to Graham's other romantic-suspense series. As with much of Graham's work from this period, each book pairs a police or security-world procedural plot with a developing central romance, resolved within that same book, while sharing New York City itself -- its neighborhoods, institutions and criminal underworlds -- as the connective thread across entries rather than recurring characters. The series' five-year run falls in a decade when Graham was publishing several parallel romantic-suspense series at once, each keyed to a different city or institutional backdrop; New York Confidential's own contribution is its specifically Manhattan focus, ranging from Diamond District jewelers to the security and law-enforcement world that keeps the city's underworld in check.
