About this book:

In "Inheritance of Lies," Maya Sullivan's return to her quiet hometown following her father's sudden death unravels a meticulously crafted facade of family secrets and long-buried crimes. What begins as a dutiful visit to execute her father's will quickly spirals into a dangerous investigation, as cryptic clues, a hidden journal, and a mysterious set of keys reveal his "accident" was, in fact, a calculated murder. As Maya delves deeper, she uncovers a decades-old conspiracy involving powerful local figures, illicit land dealings, and the haunting disappearance of a young artist.

Armed with her legal acumen and an unexpected ally in her childhood friend David, Maya must navigate a treacherous web of deceit, where her own family is implicated, and the very foundation of her past is built on lies. Her father, Thomas Sullivan, is revealed to be a complex man—once a willing participant in the criminal enterprise, then a secret informant attempting to atone for his past, including a tragic love affair with the vanished artist, Katherine Vance. As the truth surfaces, threatening her own life and that of her unsuspecting mother, Maya must confront her family's darkest secrets and fight for justice, even if it means sacrificing everything she thought she knew.
