Smell of Lavenders: As It Burns
#Book1: #SOL Series.
Revenge Stage
Lavender smells soft. Familiar.
But when it burns?
It turns into something darker.
This is a slow-burn psychological thriller.
Filled with obsession, buried pasts, and truths never meant to be found.
Zinnia Wister. She's 26 but somehow feels like she's lived a hundred lifetimes already. Calm, collected, and way too sharp for her own good. Nothing gets past her - every tiny shift in someone's voice, every glance you think you hid, she sees. It's why she's a Cyber Forensic Investigator
Neil Hale. Used to be her rival. Now? Partner-in-crime. He's 29 and has this weird superpower of lighting up the room - but in a way that makes you nervous 'cause you realise you kinda like him way more than you should. He jokes, teases, keeps things light, but if you look close enough, there's something... off.
:-) He believes in the law like it's sacred.
:-) She believes in fairness - even if that means bending or breaking the law sometimes.
They spent months on a blackmail case, following digital crumbs.

This case? It's personal now.
And no one's walking out clean.
✩ So, are you ready to uncover the truth?
Take a deep breath and dive into solving the case.
