Ashley Farley: Dark Current Reckoning, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

Lane Sutherlin has dragged Tidewell's darkest secrets into the light-except the one still poisoning its future. A powerful faction of the Old Guard, including Lane's own stepfather, is quietly orchestrating a land grab that will wipe out Tidewell's most historic neighborhood and replace it with a waterfront casino. But before Lane can stop them, a far more personal truth resurfaces.

New evidence emerges about the boat accident that killed her brother nineteen years ago, forcing Lane to confront the lies that shaped her life and the man who buried them. Sheriff Boone didn't just fail her-he hid the truth to protect one of Tidewell's most privileged sons. And the boy who "rescued" her that night wasn't a savior at all.

As Lane digs deeper, the Old Guard closes ranks, desperate to silence her before she exposes their final, most dangerous secret. And complicating everything is Briggs-the town's embattled commonwealth's attorney-whose feelings for Lane are getting harder to deny, even as the pressure threatens to break them apart.

With enemies closing in, a community on the brink, and the past demanding justice, Lane must decide what she's willing to risk to finish what she started. Tidewell is running out of time.

And this time, the reckoning is hers.
