{ In the quiet town of Black Hollow, secrets don't stay buried-they haunt. }
Ren Carter, a reclusive bookstore owner with a troubled past, becomes the prime suspect in the brutal murder of a local woman. As the evidence piles up, Ren insists he's being framed, but his history of mental illness and blackouts makes him an easy target.
With the help of a determined lawyer, Ren uncovers a web of lies, betrayal, and corruption that runs deeper than anyone imagined. But in a town where everyone has something to hide, the truth may be more dangerous than the lies.
