Maya's Journey: The Secret Within The City

By Pavani Padugupati

Book Overview

Maya came to the city for a new job, not a nightmare. All she wanted was a place to stay, a routine to settle into, and a future to build. But the moment she steps into her paying guest house filled with antiques that seem to hide untold stories, a landlady whose mood swings from charming to chilling, and a mysterious voice that commands her to leave, Maya realizes she has walked straight into danger.

When the landlady is found dead under suspicious circumstances, Maya becomes caught and trapped between ruthless investigators, a too-helpful security guard with secrets of his own, and a stranger who keeps reappearing at the wrong time, she doesn't know whom to trust or how to escape.

Every door she opens pulls her deeper into a twisted game where the past refuses to stay buried. The whispered betrayals converge into chilling puzzle that could cost Maya her freedom...or her life.

Haunting, fast-paced and utterly unpredictable, Maya's Journey: the Secret Within the City unravels a dark truth hidden in plain sight where every friend may be an enemy, and every secret has a price.
