His Empire Of Lies: Undone By A Song

From the back cover

Aurora Hayes, a senator' s wife with a mystical singing gift known as "Heartnote Harmony," craved true connection on her tenth wedding anniversary night.

But inside their D.C. mansion, she overheard a devastating truth: her charismatic husband, Alistair, had fathered children with his former aide, Cassie Bellweather.

Cassie demanded Aurora' s unique gift be used to legitimize her sons, shattering Aurora's carefully constructed world.

The betrayal escalated quickly; Cassie stole Aurora's ancestral locket, then brutally crushed her hands in a piano, forever silencing her extraordinary voice.

Aurora was publicly framed as unstable and suicidal, her "drowning" orchestrated to preserve Alistair' s political image.

Yet, as a final act of defiance, bandaged hands shaky, she scrawled "NEVER" in her own blood on a forced confession.

Presumed dead, Aurora was secretly rescued by a loyal friend, retreating to the Louisiana bayou where her broken gift transformed into something wilder, potent.

Now, rising from the swamp' s embrace as Nola Rey, she' s returning to claim what was stolen by the very man who buried her.
