After The Fall
In the mountains near Durango, tragedy can look natural.
A camper dies in a tent fire. A hiker falls from a ridge after continuing alone. A couple nearly vanishes off a mountain pass in a vehicle they never should have taken there.
At first, each incident looks like the wilderness doing what the wilderness does best: punishing mistakes without mercy.
But Detective Jen Aldean sees the pattern beneath the accidents.
Someone is staging deaths to look like consequences. Fire, cliffs, roads, ropes, and rivers are being turned into weapons. Every scene carries the same brutal message: people were warned, and they failed to listen.
When FBI agent Tucker Henderson joins the investigation, the case points toward an old mountain fall, a dead boy, and a surviving witness who never accepted the word accident. As the killer moves from one staged tragedy to the next, Jen must uncover not only who is behind the deaths, but why he believes every fall belongs to more than one person.
Because in these mountains, the edge is never the beginning.
And someone is still waiting to prove it.
After the Fall is a tense psychological crime thriller about guilt, blame, survival, and the dangerous stories people tell after tragedy.
