Where Small-Town Secrets Hide
Small towns don't forget their secrets. They bury them.
When Mara returns to Briar Glen following her grandmother Eleanor's death, she expects to settle the estate and leave quietly. Instead, she discovers a hidden key sewn into an old garment-along with evidence connected to Lydia Bell, a young woman who vanished during the devastating flood of 1998.
As Mara searches for answers, she uncovers missing newspaper records, a bloodstained ledger, suspicious payments, and traces of a secret organization known as the Hollow Lantern. With Sheriff Eli Mercer at her side, she begins to realize that Lydia's disappearance was not one isolated tragedy. It was part of a carefully protected system of influence, fear, and silence reaching into Briar Glen's most respected families.
Someone has preserved the town's secrets for twenty-eight years. Now records are disappearing, witnesses are frightened, and every new discovery places Mara in greater danger. To expose the truth, she must confront her family's hidden past-and decide whom she can trust before another storm gives Briar Glen the chance to bury its secrets forever.
Where Small-Town Secrets Hide is an atmospheric mystery filled with family secrets, concealed evidence, small-town corruption, and suspenseful twists. It is the first novel in B.P. Thompson's Secrets of Briar Glen series.
