No One Is Blameless Here: A Small Town Psychological Thriller

By Catherine T. Sterling

In Coldwater Falls, secrets don't stay buried; they kill.
When true crime podcaster Reese Morgan arrives in the quiet town of Coldwater Falls, she expects another story about small-town dysfunction. What she finds is a teenage girl's body on Main Street and a community desperate to hide the truth.
Lily Barrett was seventeen. Honor roll student. Beloved daughter. And she was investigating something that could destroy everyone.
Before her death, Lily uncovered a decades-old cover-up: a sexual predator protected by the town's most powerful citizens. She was ready to expose them all. Instead, she became another victim of the very silence she tried to break.
Now four strangers must piece together the truth:
o Reese Morgan, the investigator haunted by her own small-town past
o Ivy Sullivan, a waitress whose daughter was the predator's latest target
o Cole Hartley, the troubled local accused of a murder he didn't commit
o David Mercer, the principal who's been complicit through his silence
As they dig deeper, they discover Lily wasn't the first girl to die protecting this town's secrets, and she won't be the last unless they expose everyone involved.
But in Coldwater Falls, the most dangerous people aren't strangers. They're the ones you trust most.
From school board presidents to beloved coaches, from law enforcement to devoted fathers, when everyone has something to hide, no one is blameless here.
Lily Barrett died trying to tell the truth. Will you listen?
