Hidden Truths

The last thing Ivy Calloway’s father told her before a devastating stroke stole his voice was never to trust a man who smiled before shaking her hand, but she dismissed the warning until she watched her charming Uncle Desmond quietly step into control of the manufacturing company her father had built from nothing, presenting himself as the natural leader while everyone praised his kindness and loyalty.

Months later, while sorting through her father’s office, Ivy found a major contract signed with her father’s name even though he could no longer write, and as she stared at the forged signature she realized her uncle might be stealing far more than a business, so instead of confronting him she secretly photographed the document and began searching for the truth.
