Brooklyn Hill Mystery (BHM) is a gripping dystopian mystery set in 1998, following Janet, a mother of two young daughters, Darla and Eleanor. Seeking a fresh start after the mysterious disappearance of her husband, Janet moves her family from their bustling city life to a secluded town on the outskirts, hidden by thick trees and towering mountains. The town, trapped in a perpetual fog, is a place where color is absent, and the air feels heavy with an unspoken secret.

Brooklyn Hill is quiet, almost eerily so, with few cars on the roads and even fewer signs of life. Janet hopes the move will help her reconnect with her daughters and escape the pain of her husband's disappearance-or at least, that's what the police claim happened to him. Their new home, a recently renovated Victorian-style house, offers the promise of a new beginning, but Janet's relief is short-lived.

On her first night in the house, Janet discovers a mysterious door hidden under the staircase. Given the house's inexplicably low price, she should have been more cautious, but time was short, and she gratefully handed over her money. Soon after moving in, Janet begins to notice strange occurrences around the girls' school, her new job, and their otherwise peaceful home. Even her youngest daughter, Eleanor, starts to exhibit unsettling behavior. The town, once thought to be quiet and ordinary, seems to harbor its own dark secrets.

Is there something the townspeople are hiding? Are they simply wary of newcomers, or are they covering up something far more sinister?

As Janet unravels the mysteries surrounding her home, the school, and the strange happenings in Brooklyn Hill, she must confront the possibility that the town's secrets may be linked to her husband's disappearance. Can she protect her daughters from the town's dark past, or will the truth remain buried... along with more missing souls?
