Fifteen years ago, Emma Harlow fled the fog-drenched town of Pinewell, leaving behind the fractured memory of her father's tragic downfall and a past she never dared to question. Now, drawn back by his unexpected death, Emma returns to settle his estate-only to discover that some ghosts don't stay buried.
What was supposed to be a short visit spirals into a chilling unraveling of long-suppressed trauma. Strange messages appear. Forgotten memories resurface. And someone-someone very much alive-doesn't want her digging into the past.
Detective Ryan Mercer has demons of his own. Guilt-ridden and emotionally guarded, he's no stranger to loss. But when Emma becomes the target of a stalker who knows more than he should, Ryan finds himself pulled into her world-and into feelings he thought he'd buried for good.
As Emma and Ryan race to uncover the truth behind a decades-old conspiracy, they must navigate not only the shadows of Pinewell but also the fragile trust growing between them. With danger closing in and secrets rising from the mist, the line between memory and reality begins to blur.
And the closer they get to the truth, the more deadly the silence becomes.
A gripping romantic suspense novel about trauma, healing, and love found in the most unexpected places, Whispers in the Mist will keep you breathless until the final page.
