Crime Novel

It isn’t unusual for the Pocono Mountain, Pennsylvania winters to turn severe, but this season has been particularly severe. The frozen landscape looked picturesque calm. But on one terrible night, harsh winter winds whipped up a blizzard. The sky turned eerily dark and ominous, leaving the vacant streets buried under mounds of snow, the perfect cover for a killer determined to break into a sleeping household.

a sole witness unable to identify the killer, and the medical examiner assigned to the case has already ruled ‘death by natural causes’?

With her past problem (literally) dead and buried, a “new” family she could only dream of having, and an exciting life-affirming career change, Sydney Hanes finally feels like she belongs. Until....

After Tobias Brandt dies suddenly, his eldest son, with the support of his siblings, writes an obituary and has it published in the local newspaper. But instead of celebrating their father’s accomplishments and honoring his memory, it’s a scathing, contemptuous, and revealing account of the legacy of damage he caused.

Absent of closure, Tobias’s death ignites an unforeseeable sequence of events that his surviving children are forced to unravel, one perilous upset after the next.
