In the summer of 1978, the idyllic town of Meadowbrook is shrouded in golden sunlight and whispered legends of an unsolved murder/disappearances. As Detective Michael O'Connor has buried this chilling case in his past, but when the phone rings and dredges up old memories, he's pulled back into the past he had tried to forget.

As secrets unravel, and chilling revelations come to light, the lines between the past and the present blur, painting a portrait of a town with a legacy of darkness. It's not just about solving a murder or missing person; it's about confronting the buried secrets, the sinister connections, and the haunting echoes that refuse to stay in the past.

"Danger zone" is a gripping tale that weaves together the elements of a classic 1960s crime thriller and a haunting ghost story, leaving readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page. This book will have you questioning the truth, the motives, and the chilling secrets that lurk in the quiet corners of Meadowbrook.
