Lies Well Told

In the shadows of 1920s New York, where power is bought with secrets and alliances crumble overnight, Evie Lockhart is no stranger to danger. A former reporter haunted by her father's death and the unsolved mysteries left behind, she's spent years learning the city's hidden language - backroom deals, forged ledgers, and the names whispered only in confidence. When a break in a decades-old conspiracy points straight to the heart of Tammany Hall, Evie risks everything to unravel a plot that could shake the foundations of American politics.

As winter gives way to a year of turmoil, Evie navigates a world where trust is a liability and every answer breeds a new question. Her investigation draws her into the orbit of Julian Ashcroft, a charming and ruthless political fixer whose reach extends from city hall to the docks and beyond. With each new clue - murdered witnesses, missing ledgers, betrayals close to home - Evie finds herself matching wits with a man who always seems one step ahead, and whose ambitions may cost her everything she holds dear.

Brimming with intrigue, historical detail, and a heroine who refuses to be silenced, Lies Well Told captures the grit and glamour of Jazz Age New York at its breaking point. For readers who crave a mystery where every page holds its own secrets and the truth is never simple, this is a story that will stay with you long after the final chapter. Step into Evie's world - and discover just how far one woman will go when the city turns against her.
