ABOUT THE BOOK
Book 2 of 10: The Secrets of the Hollow
In the quiet town, the old church bell only rings for Sunday service or a funeral. So when it tolls at midnight, Deputy Leo Miller knows the peace is over. By dawn, the town’s founding documents—irreplaceable artifacts from a locked room—have vanished.
Leo has always preferred the shadows of the precinct to the heat of the spotlight. Anxious and unassuming, he’s the last person the town expects to crack the case. but as the investigation stalls, Leo realizes the thief didn’t just break in—they belong.
To save the town’s history, Leo must step out of the background and use his quiet, observant nature to outsmart a criminal hiding in plain sight. In a town where everyone is a neighbor, how do you catch a thief who knows exactly where you’re looking?
