THE ONYX LEDGER THE ONYX FILES: SICILE — Book One Some secrets are hidden beneath the paint. Others are written in blood. Elena is a highly skilled art restorer in Hamburg. She knows how to uncover what time has buried beneath layers of paint—but she has never encountered a secret that seems to have been waiting specifically for her. When the mysterious Julian Vance brings her an old nineteenth-century painting, Elena discovers something impossible beneath its surface: a six-petaled lily seal and a coded serial number. The symbol is identical to the mark left on her own wrist from the fire that destroyed her childhood. Julian knows more than he is willing to reveal. And the painting is only the beginning. Three days later, Elena is drawn into the Silent Auction, a secret gathering hidden beneath Hamburg, where priceless artworks conceal financial records, erased identities and decades-old crimes. Among the masked bidders is a powerful consortium that has spent years controlling fortunes, bloodlines and the truth surrounding a devastating fire in 1996. Then Lot 09 appears. A painting believed to have been destroyed decades ago. A burning mansion. A young girl. And the girl is Elena. As the auction reaches unimaginable prices, Elena realizes that someone has altered the painting recently—and that whatever lies beneath its newest layer may expose an empire powerful enough to destroy anyone who gets too close. To uncover the truth, Elena must learn who created the Onyx Ledger, why her past was erased, and what her father left hidden beneath the paintings. The deeper she looks, the darker the truth becomes. THE ONYX LEDGER is a dark mystery thriller of art, secret societies, hidden fortunes, family secrets and a conspiracy buried beneath generations of deception. Some paintings preserve history. This one was created to hide it.
