Legacy of Lies

Her family’s deadliest secret is about to become her most dangerous truth. When family historian Lyra Kincaid uncovers her ancestor Elara’s cryptic 19th-century journal, it connects her lineage to Oakhaven's infamous Whispering Bluffs train robbery—a bloody, unsolved crime. Elara’s words hint at a terrifying secret, a "debt" still casting a lethal shadow. Lyra’s quest for truth immediately provokes powerful forces; a break-in and chilling threats prove some secrets are meant to stay buried.

With an ally, journalist Finn Holloway, Lyra unearths a hidden ledger, its entries implicating her own Kincaid ancestors alongside Oakhaven’s elite. Elara’s journal also reveals "The Overseer," a brutal enforcer whose vengeful descendants, led by the ruthless Silas Rook, now hunt for the ledger, believing it key to their "stolen honor" and immense power. They will kill to possess it.

As Lyra deciphers Elara’s clues, she learns her ancestor was a hero, murdered by The Overseer for trying to expose the entire conspiracy. The final trail leads to treacherous smuggler's tunnels, where Elara hid irrefutable proof. Deep underground, Lyra confronts Rook, leading to a catastrophic showdown where the truth of generations of deceit is finally laid bare.

Lyra emerges with the evidence, forcing a reckoning upon a town built on lies. She must now confront her family's dark inheritance and forge a new legacy from the ashes. Legacy of Lies is a relentless thriller where unearthing a historic crime unleashes a deadly chain of events, proving the past never stays dead and its secrets can kill.
