A Lineage of Murder

By B.T. Lord

Old legends. New murder. A town unraveling.

Sheriff Cammie Farnsworth answers a call from hikers who've found a man bound to a table in a derelict cabin. The victim is an investigative journalist--far from home and chasing a story he never finished. Why Twin Ponds? What did he uncover that someone needed to silence?

As Cammie digs, old stories flare: whispers that exiles from Salem founded the town and carried their rites and secrets into the woods. Folklore feeds panic, clues slip through frightened hands, and neighbor turns on neighbor. Evidence points backward as much as forward, and someone will do anything to keep the past, whatever it is, buried.

Pulled into events she can't explain, Cammie must separate myth from motive before there's another body. If she calls it wrong, she could lose her badge, the people she loves, and the town she's sworn to protect.

A Lineage of Murder is book nine in the Twin Ponds Mysteries, a suspenseful small-town mystery series where folklore, community drama, and twist-filled investigations collide.
