ABOUT THE BOOK
In 1980’s Pemberton ,sin wears Sunday clothes
-and salvation comes with smoke.
After losing her husband, Ava Chapman stopped believing in miracles. But when a charming new pastor arrives and a series of fires consume her quiet Georgia town, the line between faith and fear begins to blur.
Each blaze burns closer to home. Each sermon hides another secret. And as whispers turn to panic, Ava realizes the evil haunting Pemberton isn’t just in the pews-it’s inside the hearts of those she trust most.
Detective Mark Sanders sees the same pattern Ava does, but guilt from his own sins cloud his judgment. Together, they’ll uncover a darkness that feeds on faith itself-before the next fire takes everything they love.
Gritty, atmospheric, and deeply Southern, Hollow Faith is a Southern Gothic thriller about guilt, redemption, and the lies we tell to survive.
Fans of Where the Crawdads Sing, Sharp Objects, and The Devil All the Time will be captivated by this haunting debut where every prayer has a price.
