Account Number 13

A murder. A missing ledger. A city built on secrets.

When Arthur Fisher, director of the exclusive Veritas Repository, is found dead inside his locked office, Detective Ethan Coleman is called to investigate what appears to be a routine death.

It is anything but routine.

Hidden behind the walls of an unremarkable limestone building lies a vault unlike any other—a private archive containing the darkest secrets of the city's most powerful figures. Politicians. Judges. Billionaires. Industrialists. Every secret is cataloged, protected, and controlled through a single handwritten ledger.

By the time Ethan arrives, that ledger is gone.

As evidence points to an insider operation and a carefully orchestrated murder, Ethan uncovers a network of corruption stretching far beyond a single homicide. Every clue leads deeper into a world where power is built on leverage, loyalty is bought with fear, and truth is the most dangerous commodity of all.

With influential forces working to bury the investigation, Ethan must race against time to find the missing ledger before the city’s fragile balance collapses—and before the people behind the conspiracy silence him forever.

In a city where everyone has something to hide, one account holds the key to everything.

Account Number 13 is a gripping financial thriller packed with mystery, conspiracy, suspense, and high-stakes intrigue. Perfect for readers who enjoy Dan Brown, Michael Connelly, Blake Crouch, and Michael Crichton.
