A Bay Area urban crime thriller
The Bay moved on. She didn't.
The She Was a Friend of Mine series is getting a makeover, inside and out. Stay tuned...
The Bay thought the story ended in blood.
The world believes Shi is dead.
Her name fades from conversations. Her enemies stop looking. Her friends mourn what they believe is already buried. And somewhere far from the Bay, Shi is still breathing—hidden, broken, and forced to sit with everything that came before.
She isn’t waking up to answers.
She’s waking up to absence.
The people she loved are gone. The life she built has been dismantled. And the version of herself that climbed the Bay’s criminal world no longer exists. What’s left is someone quieter, heavier, and unsure whether survival was a gift or a sentence.
Coming back isn’t about revenge or reclaiming power. It’s about choosing whether she even wants to return to a city that already wrote her ending.
The Bay has moved on.
The streets replaced her.
And the truth about what happened in Death Pool lives with the people who survived it.
She Was a Friend of Mine 6: Resurrection is a reflective, emotionally grounded Bay Area crime novel about rebirth after erasure—and what it means to step back into the world when everyone already believes you’re dead.
The fifth installment of the She Was a Friend of Mine Bay Area crime saga, concluding Shi Iverson’s journey after loss, power, and disappearance.
