The Quiet Before Confession

When Lena Mireles steps off the elevator onto the seventh floor of an empty office building, she expects silence , not a body. As the investigation unfolds, suspicion falls on the building's inner circle: her brother Aaron Mireles, the guarded Sasha Brio, and the enigmatic Philip Ortiz, among others, each carrying secrets they'd kill to keep hidden. Detectives sift through alibis that don't quite line up, loyalties that shift under pressure, and confessions that raise more questions than they answer. Sasha Brio's sister Rose knows more than she's letting on. Calvin Doss's quiet demeanor masks a volatile history. Tobias Renn, Yumiko Strand, and Maren Holt each orbit the case in ways that pull the truth further from reach. As the pressure mounts, Lena must decide how far she's willing to go to uncover what really happened , and whether the answer is worth the cost of knowing. Every choice pulls her closer to a truth that will leave no one untouched.
