Chapter 1 One

Raindrops battered the old mansion's windows, and lightning illuminated the dark corridors. It was the perfect setting for a mystery to unfold. In the quaint town of Ravenwood, Detective Emily Kingston arrived at the doorstep of the gloomy estate. She had been called in to investigate the murder of the wealthy philanthropist, Arthur Sinclair.

Inside the mansion, Emily discovered a gruesome scene. Arthur's lifeless body lay sprawled in the grand ballroom, a knife buried in his chest. The suspects were a motley crew of family members, business partners, and acquaintances, all gathered for what was supposed to be a joyous celebration of Arthur's latest charity venture.

As Emily delved deeper into the lives of the suspects, she uncovered secrets, betrayals, and hidden motives. Each chapter revealed a new layer of complexity, with the reader becoming entangled in a web of lies, deceit, and greed.

Emily turned her attention to the Sinclair family, known for their vast wealth and impressive social standing. The investigation took her to Arthur's widow, Victoria Sinclair, a captivating woman with a mysterious aura. Behind her polished façade, Emily sensed an air of discontent, as if there were more to the story than Victoria let on.

She also met the estranged son, Ethan Sinclair, who had been absent from the family for years. His sudden reappearance raised suspicions, especially when Emily discovered that he had been disowned by his father. As secrets from the past resurfaced, Emily began to wonder if Ethan's intentions were merely financial or if there was a deeper motive behind his return.

Arthur Sinclair's successful charity foundation was built on business partnerships, and Emily soon discovered that not all of them were as harmonious as they seemed. A rival businessman, Gregory Drake, was in fierce competition with Arthur's company, making him a potential suspect.

But Emily's instincts told her that appearances could be deceiving. She found evidence of a clandestine meeting between Arthur and Gregory, hinting at a possible truce. Could the rivalry have been a ruse to throw off suspicion, or was there an even darker plot at play?

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband’s aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason’s coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason’s mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I’m starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.
