Deceived

When he won a coveted spot at Harvard Law School, Enrique Miller thought he was escaping his small Arizona hometown for good. But after failing the bar exam—again—his path forward is more uncertain than ever. That all changes when his phone rings with devastating news: his father, a renowned amateur detective, has been murdered. There’s no choice now but to go home.

Enrique grapples with grief as he arrives in a town shaped by his father’s towering legacy—and he soon realizes that while that legacy bolstered the community, it also cast dangerous shadows. When his deputy brother feels unable to pursue the truth of what happened to their father, Enrique is reluctantly drawn into the murder investigation alongside his former flame. But as the amateur investigators discover a dangerous pattern of deceit and betrayal and small-town secrets, they realize that the perfect place for a killer to hide is in plain sight.
