A Wall Street Journal bestselling series.
Clues to a hidden treasure. Clues to a family secret. Both lead to
murder in a twisting novel of suspense by Amazon Charts and Wall Street
Journal bestselling author Kendra Elliot.
A national treasure hunt with a $2 million prize has driven obsessed
fortune seekers to overrun the small town of Eagle's Nest, Oregon. The
hunt's cryptic clues and the lure of wealth have exposed the desperate
side of human greed: theft, fights, trespassing--and even the motive to
kill. Police chief Truman Daly craves peace in his town but has a murder
on his hands instead. Now the big prize isn't the only thing hiding in
the pines. So is a killer.
When a young boy walks into the local café and claims his mother and
baby sister have been missing for weeks, FBI special agent Mercy
Kilpatrick investigates and exposes a disturbing twist in his story.
Deep family secrets and lies that started sixty years ago have burst
into the present, bringing with them deadly consequences.
Mercy's and Truman's investigations lead down a path of murder, revenge,
and buried secrets to uncover two intertwined mysteries as dark as an
Oregon forest.
