Dead Ends Lie!

They told you to follow the clues. You should've run instead.

When five strangers are found murdered in five days—each left at the end of a dead-end street with their eyes sewn shut and a playing card in their mouth—the media calls it madness. The police call it a pattern. Detective Rafe Mercer calls it personal.

Because he's seen this before.

Every trail leads nowhere. Every alibi feels rehearsed. Every witness vanishes the moment they speak. And just when Mercer thinks he's closing in, the killer leaves a new body—one that couldn't possibly be dead.

As the city spirals into panic, Mercer begins to suspect he's not chasing a killer. He's chasing a narrative—one written by someone who knows every trope, every twist, every move he'll make before he makes it. And worse? They're letting him get close... on purpose.

Because in this mystery, nothing is what it seems.

The suspects are acting. The clues are planted.

And the ending? You've been lied to since page one.

Dead Ends Lie! is a razor-edged psychological mystery soaked in gore, betrayal, and deception. A brutal, fast-paced thrill ride where clichÃ©s are weapons, every dead end is a trap, and the only real clue... is that you know absolutely nothing.
