Description

When a woman’s remarkably preserved body is discovered in a remote Appalachian cave decades after her death, forensic anthropologist Bill Brockton is drawn into a mystery shaped by the secrets of a fiercely insular mountain community. As the evidence reveals connections to long-buried feuds and an explosive past, Brockton must navigate local resistance, professional rivalries, and his own unresolved grief. Blending meticulous forensic science with atmospheric suspense, the novel explores the pursuit of justice, the enduring weight of guilt, and the ways buried truths can reshape the living.
