When Anya returns to Maplewood Hollow for the funeral of her beloved godfather, Alexander Dougher, the quiet town unravels as long-buried secrets claw their way to the surface—starting with a shocking podcast confession. Father Donovan, the town’s trusted priest for more than twenty-five years, begins to blur the line between reality and the confessions he was sworn to keep.
Grieving and confused by the cracks appearing in the image of the man she admired, Anya struggles to contain the growing chaos—both emotional and literal. Her search for answers leads her to her late aunt’s journals, their pages filled with unsettling revelations that challenge everything she thought she knew about her family, her identity, and the godfather she thought she could trust.
At the same time, Tresa, Alexander’s granddaughter, guards a secret so devastating it could destroy the Dougher legacy and tear Maplewood Hollow apart.
As loyalties fracture and love turns to betrayal, one truth remains: Maplewood Hollow is a town built on buried bones—and the ghosts of its past are restless to rise.
