Appalachian Mafia

By Barton Seal

When Chief Samuel McRaven takes a job in the quiet mountain town of Cold Hollow, West Virginia, he's not looking for trouble-just a place to disappear. But trouble doesn't care what you're looking for.

A body turns up in the woods. Locals whisper about an old, unseen power. And the deeper Samuel digs, the more he uncovers a darkness that runs deeper than coal and older than memory.

With a haunted past and a badge he's not sure still means anything, Samuel finds himself caught between a brutal criminal network and a town too afraid to speak. In a place where silence is survival, asking the wrong question could get you buried in the hills.

But Samuel McRaven didn't come to Cold Hollow to be quiet.

Gritty, relentless, and razor-edged, Appalachian Mafia is a modern crime noir soaked in blood, betrayal, and Appalachian myth-where justice is a loaded gun and trust is a dying currency.
