About this listen

A picturesque community, where murder was once unthinkable, something horrible has become a reality.

In the sleepy, lakeside community of Pine Haven, where murder is a foreign word, a gruesome discovery in a lakeside boathouse throws the town into chaos. Jessie Night, a former military investigator seeking solace from her haunting past, finds herself in the center of the storm. Recruited by local officer Alex Thomas, her investigative prowess might be Pine Haven's only hope.

Yet, every clue unearths darker questions—from dubious real estate ploys to ties with notorious biker gangs and whispers of the victim's clandestine lover. As a second murder shocks the town, Jessie realizes a dangerous mastermind may be behind everything.

Diving into the town's abyss of secrets, from the police chief's questionable motives to her own tormented memories, Jessie unravels an unsettling truth. In Pine Haven, facades are masks, and trust is a luxury she can't afford.

Boundaries blur as Jessie grapples with the malevolent force at play. Will her quest to save the town shatter her, or will the blood-soaked path to salvation lead to her own demise?
