Black Hare Valley Book One: 1996

By Chantelle Atkins

Black Hare Valley

Troublemakers not welcome. Secrets must not be revealed. The past must stay buried and the missing will be forgotten.

Wannabe reporter Jaime is new in town and desperate to be accepted but when she spies local hooligan Jesse Archer being arrested she cannot resist following the story. Jesse leads her to the bookshop where mild Paddy Finnis hangs out with his spiky friend, Willow Harrison. When sweet-natured Ralph Maxwell turns up too, Jaime wonders if she has found new friends.

Jesse is hiding secrets under secrets however and when Paddy vanishes in the night, the group close ranks to investigate his disappearance.

Why is Jesse being blackmailed by the fearsome Sergeant Mayfield? Why does the Vicar Roberts stalk Willow's nervous mother? And is Mayor Margaret Sumner, their friend or their foe?

Black Hare Valley is a sacred place where terrible things happen and then everyone forgets.
