Trail City was built on power. Behind its glittering skyline and carefully crafted reputation lies a world where secrets survive longer than people, where the truth is bought, buried, and forgotten before it ever reaches the surface. When a long-forgotten trail of clues begins to resurface, it awakens questions that were never meant to be asked and truths that powerful people have spent years trying to erase. As old wounds reopen and buried secrets claw their way back into the light, the line between loyalty and betrayal begins to blur. Because in a city where silence is rewarded and truth comes at a price, not everyone wants the past uncovered. Some lies are told to protect power. Others are buried to protect the people we love. And sometimes, the difference between the two can destroy everything. **The Ivory Lies** is a dark thriller filled with mystery, secrets, betrayal, and the devastating cost of the truth that covers up the lies
