Buried Secrets Deadly Lies
(2026)(The ninth book in the Sam Lawson Mystery series)
A novel by David K Wilson
When the wife of a tech millionaire is murdered, her secret past was buried with her. Now, to catch her killer, Sam Lawson must bring it all back from the dead—and it could cost him everything.
When Jill Wade is found murdered in the woods behind her lavish East Texas home, all eyes turn to her husband, Danny — a brash, tech millionaire with more enemies than friends. With circumstantial evidence piling up and a town eager for a conviction, Danny hires Sam Lawson, a seasoned but reluctant private investigator who doubts Danny’s innocence as much as anyone.
But Sam soon uncovers a tangled web of old-money grudges, neighborly feuds, and buried secrets. From neighbors desperate to protect their reputation to a victim who wasn’t at all who she seemed, everyone in this sleepy East Texas town has something to hide.
Haunted by self-doubt and pressured by a community thirsty for justice, Sam struggles to unravel a mystery that’s fighting to stay in the shadows. Because in East Texas, secrets are currency — and Sam may be about to pay the ultimate price.
Buried Secrets Deadly Lies is the ninth stand-alone addition to the Sam Lawson Mystery series. If you're a fan of Carl Hiaasen's Bad Monkey or the R.J. Decker television series, you'll love this southern adventure filled with colorful characters, witty dialogue and page-turning twists.
