Hilary's Challenge (Hilary Thompson Book 4) by Joseph Boyett & Jimmie Boyett Gruesome Murders. Betrayal. Pirate ghosts. Missing Persons. Buried Treasure. When a six-year-old child discovers a human head on the windswept shores of primitive Blackbeard Island off the coast of Georgia, a gruesome mystery is unearthed - one that will pull Hilary Thompson back into the world of danger she thought she'd left behind. The island, named for the infamous pirate, hides more than whispered legends and ghost stories. Beneath its live oaks and palmettos lies a grave of dismembered bodies - including that of private investigator Sam LaPetite's estranged father, Jack. Hilary, Sam, and Hilary's husband Will unravel a chilling tale of murder and betrayal with the help of Sam's tough and resolute Aunt T. With law enforcement sidelined by political pressure and social media whispering about cannibalism and ghostly retribution, Hilary must rely on her instincts, tenacity, and her need for a new challenge to uncover the truth. From the authors of Hilary's Search, Hilary's Discovery, and Hilary's Promise, this electrifying new murder mystery delivers a pulse-pounding mix of crime, legend, and Southern gothic suspense.
