Anne Black: The Lies Within Us is the second book in the Anne Black series and can be read as a standalone novel. It is a fast-burning paranormal thriller that blends espionage, reincarnation, romance and ancient power.

In the midst of a relentless snowstorm, a gifted writer is drawn into a covert mission to stop a catastrophic attack. As fragments of past lives surface and hidden abilities awaken, she is forced to confront a dangerous connection to a mysterious operative whose role in her fate may be the key to survival, or the reason history is doomed to repeat itself.

She was never meant to remember. Now the truth could cost her everything.

Anne Black has spent her life chasing patterns. Codes, symbols, and stories hidden in plain sight. But when a brutal international attack shatters her quiet world, she discovers the most dangerous secret is not buried in data. It is buried inside her.

As intelligence agencies close in and shadow operatives circle, Anne begins to uncover fragments of a past erased when she was a child. Memories that do not belong to this life. Skills she never learned. Power she was never meant to wield.

At the center of the storm stands Mark, an elite operative sworn to protect her, even as doubts rise about who Anne truly is. Allies may be lying. Enemies may already be inside the walls. And the deeper Anne digs, the more she realizes the greatest deception was never the one told to the world.

It was what she told herself.
