Axel Twigg knows how to uncover the truth.He's done it with a badge. He's done it with a pen. And he's learned that neither comes without a cost.When Olivia Arnold-a guarded heiress with a carefully controlled past-hires Axel to write her story, she asks for honesty without mercy. No smoothing the edges. No softening the damage.Axel agrees, treating the job like a biography rather than an investigation-until Olivia vanishes days after their final interview.What begins as a writing assignment quickly collapses into something far more dangerous. As Axel retraces Olivia's past, the line between author and investigator blurs, forcing him back into instincts he thought he'd buried along with his badge. Each truth he uncovers raises a harder question: was Olivia running from her past, or from what she'd already revealed?Set in a world of quiet deals, delayed consequences, and carefully managed silence, The Delay is a gritty noir mystery about truth as a commodity-and the people willing to disappear to keep it buried. Axel Twigg must decide how far he's willing to go to finish a story someone never intended to survive.
