Some truths are worth killing for. Others are worth dying to reveal.
In the glittering world of 1970s high society, Laurence Ellison has everything: wealth, influence, and the magnificent estate known as Ember Row. To investigative reporter Quinn Whitaker, Ellison is magnetic, inscrutable—and possibly dangerous.
When Quinn begins looking into the supposed suicide of a prominent real estate developer, the investigation draws him deeper into Ellison’s orbit, where fortunes are built on secrets and loyalty can be bought, tested, or betrayed. But before Quinn can uncover the truth, a devastating car accident leaves his closest friend dead, his own body shattered, and his life consumed by guilt.
As Quinn struggles to rebuild, his questions about Ember Row refuse to disappear. What begins as an investigation into one man’s death becomes a reckoning with power, corruption, family, and the choices that define a life.
Set against a richly rendered backdrop of decadence, ambition, and moral compromise, The House on Ember Row is a literary suspense novel about the seduction of power, the cost of loyalty, and whether redemption is possible after everything falls apart.
