Decades of silence. A chilling discovery. Some secrets refuse to stay buried.
True crime writer Dougal Lachlan swore he’d never return to Twisted Cedars—not even for his sister’s wedding. But when a cryptic email teases the scoop of a lifetime, he’s drawn back to his hometown—and into the heart of a decades-old mystery.
Thirty years ago, five librarians were murdered across quiet coastal towns in Oregon. The cases were never solved. The killer never caught. And now, someone wants the truth to come out.
Teaming up with Charlotte Hammond, the town’s reluctant librarian who prefers fictional mysteries to real-life horror—especially after her own sister Daisy disappeared years ago—Dougal begins unraveling a trail of long-buried secrets.
But the deeper they dig, the more dangerous the truth becomes.
Because in a town like Twisted Cedars, the past is never really dead—and neither are its secrets.
Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Tana French, and C.J. Tudor, Twisted Cedars is a gripping blend of small-town suspense, unsolved crimes, and page-turning tension that will keep you guessing until the final twist.
