Description
When Holly Barker returns to her hometown of Orchid Beach, Florida, she expects familiar faces and a fresh start—but finds a shocking legacy waiting for her. Across decades, the town’s history is traced through the lives of three police chiefs, as long-buried tensions surface around a brutal racial murder that refuses to stay in the past. With her military discipline and hard-earned instincts, Holly is drawn into a case that demands both justice and courage, forcing the community to confront what it has tried to forget. Blending sweeping Southern atmosphere with a propulsive, character-driven mystery, this novel explores the costs of prejudice, the weight of public duty, and the persistence of truth.
