Beneath the Surface

The most dangerous secrets aren't those that stay buried-but those that rise to the surface disguised as truth.

In 1978, curator Katherine Lowell vanished from her lakeside home at Echo Cove-along with several priceless artworks. Her disappearance was deemed a theft and a betrayal. No one asked what really happened.

Forty-five years later, Morgan Chen, a celebrated art curator, retreats to the same property after a devastating professional betrayal. But the peace she seeks remains elusive. Strange whispers in the community, unsettling parallels with Katherine's past, and the discovery of a hidden artifact begin to unravel Morgan's carefully constructed life.

As Morgan digs deeper, she unearths a decades-old conspiracy-one that implicates the very institutions she's built her career around. And the closer she gets to the truth, the more danger she faces, until she must ask herself:

How far would you go to expose the truth, if it meant destroying everything you know?

Beneath the Surface is a masterfully woven dual-timeline psychological thriller that explores identity, legacy, and the cost of uncovering buried truths. For fans of Paula Hawkins, Tana French, and Lisa Jewell.
