The Lying Spiral

She's gone. Vanished from a city so slick it looks like it’s been sprayed with high-gloss paint. But underneath, it's as rotten as a week-old banana in your gym bag. Where silence and deceit are bought and sold like just another commodity.

Life as a private investigator was supposed to be easier than being a cop, but for Elias Gentry, it was anything but. Stumbling into forced retirement, a burned-out Gentry reflects on his past, haunted by the memories of a lost cousin, a partner who’s no longer around, and ghosts that whisper about bad decisions, threatening to unravel him.

But when he takes on the case of a missing woman, Josie Lemongello, things only get more complicated.

As Gentry delves into the investigation, he uncovers a web of secrets and lies surrounding Josie's wealthy boyfriend, Bradford Winston. When he digs deeper, he stumbles into a hornet’s nest of big money, big power and brutal muscle covering up something ugly. And with Josie's emotional struggles adding another layer of complexity, Gentry must confront his own personal demons while trying to solve the puzzle.

Set against the backdrop of a bustling city, this novel follows Elias Gentry as he navigates the twists and turns of human relationships. Fans of psychological thrillers and complex characters will be drawn into this story of love, loss, and the search for truth.
