Synopsis

The Lies That Bind Us is a dark psychological suspense series about the secrets that destroy us — and the truths that refuse to stay buried.

At its heart lies Dr. Hanna Nowack, a criminal psychologist rebuilding her life after tragedy. But when her work forces her to confront a manipulative killer and the ghosts of her past, Hanna’s daughter, career, and sanity all hang in the balance.

• Book One – The Lies We Whisper: Nine years after her husband’s death, Hanna finds stability—until she’s assigned to treat a serial killer who knows far too much about her. What begins as a psychological chess match unravels into a reckoning with love, loyalty, and choices that can’t be undone.

• Book Two – Beyond the Truth (coming late 2025): Fallout turns deadly as hidden alliances surface and buried crimes ignite. With her pursuer closing in and old wounds bleeding fresh, Hanna must face both the man who hunts her and the guilt that haunts her.

Told in dual timelines and written with haunting, immersive prose, The Lies That Bind Us blends family drama, organized crime, and psychological tension into a story of betrayal, obsession, and resilience. Perfect for readers of dark thrillers and emotionally complex suspense.
