The Lexingfield Murders

Two novels. One town. A truth that changes everyone who touches it.

In the quiet Virginia county of Lexingfield, children have been disappearing for years. The river carries what the town cannot hold. The library on the corner of Main and Church is where people go when they need to be heard. And the Thursday evening grief group in the church hall is where the broken learn to carry what they cannot put down.

Still Water is the hunt. Sheriff Jack Holloway has forty-eight hours to find his daughter, and the investigation pulls him into a pattern of loss that runs through Lexingfield like a current beneath the surface. A thriller about a father, a town, and the price of the things we fail to see.

Reflections is the aftermath. The case is closed. The people left behind must now live inside a truth that has rewritten every act of kindness they received, every Thursday evening in the oval of chairs, every moment they felt understood. A novel about grief, attention, and the impossible question of what to do when the person who held you together is the reason you fell apart.

Each book stands alone. Together, they tell the complete story of a town that trusted the wrong person with its worst year, and what it cost, and what survived.

For readers of Tana French, Chris Whitaker, and Alice Sebold.
