[2022 Wattys Shortlist] [2023 Wattpad Editors' Choice] Previously "Wicked Lies"

Melissa Hale, daughter of Senator Hale, was murdered. Christopher Williams, one of her classmates at NYU, is being framed for it.

Isabela del Rey, a young lawyer working at one of the top law firms in New York, is determined to help him, even if it means having to solve the mystery herself. However, once she starts digging too deep, she finds herself playing cat-and-mouse with the real murderer.

Add a complicated office romance, a dark past in Mexico that's starting to catch up with her, and another client who just killed his father and with whom she has some history, and you might get the perfect mess.
