The Gallery of Lies

About

The Gallery of Lies is a haunting psychological crime thriller that explores the dark side of identity, obsession, and the illusions we create to survive.

When a string of murders surfaces in South Yorkshire — each more brutal and stylized than the last — Detective Mara Vandelyn is drawn into a world once obsessed with beauty and control: a long-defunct modeling agency where masks weren’t just worn, they were crafted.

As the case deepens, Mara must confront the ghosts of the past — and the face of a killer who sees every victim as a canvas.

A missing girl. A shattered legacy. And a killer building toward one final masterpiece.

 

Synopsis

South Yorkshire is no stranger to darkness — but the murders now surfacing are something else entirely.

Each victim is posed with disturbing precision. Each scene, staged like art. And all of them trace back to one place: SoYo Models, a glamorous agency that once turned girls into stars — and secrets into silence.

Leading the investigation is Detective Mara Vandelyn, sharp, unyielding, and haunted by her own past. As she peels back the layers of the victims’ lives, she uncovers a legacy of manipulation, lost identities, and a predator hiding behind perfection.

But someone is watching. Curating. And their masterpiece isn’t finished yet.

In a world built on image, The Gallery of Lies asks: what happens when the truth is too ugly to face?
