Beneath Duskwood

Hannah Donfort was supposed to be dead. But instead, she was found alive in the caves beneath Duskwood - and the town buried the nightmare as quickly as it could.
The case was closed. The culprit confessed. The headlines faded.
But some stories don't end when the news cycle does.
Leja never meant to become part of Duskwood's tragedy. She was just a name - a phone number sent from a missing girl's device. A stranger pulled into a digital investigation she never asked for. With the help of an anonymous hacker who lived in the shadows, she helped unravel a truth that shattered friendships and cost a life.
Or so they thought.
Now Leja has returned to Duskwood for the first time.
When whispers begin to surface - and a man who shouldn't know certain names says them anyway - Leja realizes something far more dangerous may be hiding beneath the surface of this small town.
Someone sent her number on purpose.
Someone was watching long before Hannah disappeared.
And the man she trusted most may be hiding more than just his identity.
In Duskwood, secrets don't stay buried.
They wait.
