The Ledger They Buried

Arthur only wanted to pay off a debt. Then a salvage job pulls a buried municipal ledger from a flooded district—and exposes a crime powerful enough to destroy an entire neighborhood.

Cleo knows the ledger could prove Vanguard Development Corporation deliberately manipulated the flooding to seize valuable land. But the deeper they dig, the more they discover that someone has been hiding the truth for years.

With a ruthless debt collector closing in, Cleo’s uncle facing eviction, and Vanguard watching their every move, Arthur and Cleo have one chance to expose the company before the evidence disappears.

The problem is that the closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes to trust anyone—including each other.
