Hell to the Bone

Cumberland Heights, Tennessee—where whispers bury the truth deeper than the grave.

Adin Jane Austin runs a boutique by day and collects secrets by night. Everyone talks to her—spilling gossip, confessions, and things never meant to see daylight. But when men start vanishing without a trace, the rumors sharpen into something darker.

The disappearances aren’t new. They stretch back twenty years—abductions, murders, and a pattern the town refuses to face.

Adin isn’t a detective. But with a dogged investigator at her side, she digs into a web of buried crimes, family corruption, and power that kills to protect itself. Every answer she uncovers tightens the snare around her own neck.

In a place where silence is survival, speaking the truth might cost her everything.

Hell to the Bone is a slow-burn Southern noir thriller steeped in psychological suspense, where justice is twisted, danger runs in the blood, and secrets never stay buried.
