A Flaw of Her Own Making

By Steve Culpepper

Some wounds don't fade with time. They wait. They echo.

When twelve-year-old Grace Ofterdahl trusted the wrong man, she learned that silence was safer than the truth. She buried her past beneath academic achievement, professional success, and carefully controlled lies.

Until now.

A long-hidden, decades-old crime resurfaces, dragging the past-and the one person she never wanted to see again-back into Grace's life. Old betrayals, lost love, and the choices she made to survive begin closing in around her. As a murder investigation tightens, the secret Grace has spent a lifetime protecting is suddenly at risk.

Silence comes at a cost.

Buried loyalties collide with dangerous truths, forcing Grace to confront what really happened all those years ago-and the one promise still waiting for her.

Because this time, running away isn't an option.

A Flaw of Her Own Making is a psychological thriller about memory, survival, and the devastating price of buried truths-where one moment can define a life, and facing the truth may be the only way to save what's left of it.
