The Dark Below

When Chase Loudermilk, a troubled veteran, is found dead, most assume suicide. But Teddy Drummond, a criminology professor and former cop, suspects murder. Haunted by his own painful memories, Teddy believes the answers lie in Chase's shadowy past. Teddy reluctantly partners with Detective Raina Bragg—a woman he has reason to resent—to investigate. As they uncover the town's buried secrets, they discover more than a motive: a chain of increasingly dark choices. When a second body appears, Teddy and Raina race to stop a killer and expose the truth. In a place where lives are tangled and few are truly innocent, they learn that some consequences take years to surface, and the most dangerous secrets are the ones no one sees coming.
