Echoes of Harmony Creek

A missing boy. A buried past. A journalist who won’t stop digging.

Retired journalist Roxie Caldwell thought she’d found peace in her Harmony Creek garden. But the town’s darkest secret, recently unearthed, still haunts her every quiet moment. So when Sheriff Sandy Stone arrives with a dusty cold case file—the 1978 disappearance of a brilliant student named Thomas Tanner—Roxie can’t resist a new puzzle to distract her restless mind.
Thomas Tanner was officially a runaway, a troubled kid who vanished without a trace. But the more Roxie digs, the clearer it becomes that Harmony Creek’s carefully curated history holds more than one skeleton. With her tech-savvy ally Annie White and a reluctant Sheriff Stone by her side, Roxie uncovers a web of academic ambition, forbidden romance, and a chilling conspiracy that reaches into the highest echelons of the town’s founding families.
Mayor Cindy Sterling, desperate to protect her own family's legacy and the town's fragile peace, quickly moves from veiled warnings to open obstruction. As the fifty-year-old mystery unravels, Roxie realizes that someone is still actively guarding these truths. The past isn't just history; it's a dangerous, living threat. Roxie must race against time to unmask a killer before Harmony Creek’s deadly secrets bury her too.
