His Children

Nestled near the Missouri-Arkansas border, Clyde County is an indistinguishable blip on the map. Nothing ever happens here – at least nothing ever did.

When a boy is strung up, crucified on the shoulder of a country road, investigative reporter Leonard Beard finds himself turning over the soil of the Missouri South. It's not long before he's tangled in a web of murder and lies, spiraling down a rabbit hole of child abductions dating back nine years.

In his debut novel, L.H. Varney examines the darkest corners of the human mind. His Children is a gripping story, exploring the atrocities of a man who has become corrupted by divine assignment.
