Unstable Bonds: The Nate Lorimer Files: Book 1

By Dan Williams and Dan Williams .

When a man is found dead near the Birch Line on the edge of his property, organic chemistry professor Nate Lorimer becomes the easiest person in town to blame.

In Alderbrook, Vermont, stories spread fast and facts come second. Nate lives alone, keeps to himself, and works in a private lab behind his house. To Sheriff Mara Kline, that is enough to make him look dangerous. To the town, it is enough to make him guilty.

As the investigation tightens, Nate watches his reputation collapse in real time. His home is searched. His work is seized. Anonymous messages start arriving. Evidence appears where it should not, disappears where it should, and every attempt to defend himself only seems to pull the noose tighter.

With the help of attorney Alana Keene and Deputy Evan Marsh, Nate begins to uncover a far more disturbing truth: someone is not just framing him. Someone is carefully building a case around him.

Set against the cold beauty of rural Vermont, Unstable Bonds is a tense, character-driven suspense novel about reputation, corruption, and what happens when a town decides who you are before the truth has a chance to speak.
