Beneath The Falls

By K D St Jean

When the body of a man is found discarded in a manure pit on the outskirts of Wakefield Falls, many are quick to look the other way. But for Detective Sergeant Ethan Black, the discovery of Gerry Brenneman strikes a jagged, personal nerve. Haunted by his brother's unsolved death and a family history written in tragedy, Ethan refuses to let another "inconvenient" life be erased.
As high-priced developers and City Hall power brokers scramble to protect a lucrative "development," Ethan finds an unlikely ally in Valerie Reimer, a reporter with a similar hunger for the truth. Together, they peel back the polished veneer of the city's elite to find a corruption that runs deeper than the local soil.

With the unhoused community braced for a purge and the body count rising, Ethan is no longer just solving a murder. He's fighting a system designed to bury its secrets. In a race against those who view people as disposable, Ethan has one chance to expose the darkness of Wakefield Falls before the truth is buried for good.
