Through Hollow Eyes- A Carson Graves Novel
Detective Carson Graves is running out of time-and running out of himself. Haunted by a past he can't escape and a strange ability he never asked for, Graves walks the line between solving murders and being consumed by them. When a string of killings tears through the city, each victim tied to secrets better left buried, Carson is pulled into a case that feels less like an investigation and more like a reckoning. This is not a story of clean answers or easy justice. It's a descent into crime, corruption, and the hollow places where truth hides. Fans of dark detective fiction and supernatural twists will find themselves at home here-if home is a city of shadows and nothing is ever what it seems.
