The Silence Beneath the Pines: A Nettlewood Mystery

In the fog‑shrouded town of Nettlewood, secrets don’t stay buried—they echo. When Maisy Glenn returns home after her friend’s disappearance, she uncovers a trail of hidden tunnels, coded ledgers, and a century‑old debt that binds every family in town. As the sheriff closes in and a forgotten network resurfaces, Maisy must decide whether to flee from the truth or face it head‑on. With the help of Zayden Cooke—a man haunted by his own family’s sins—and the mysterious Elias Crim, Maisy unearths the original ledger that holds Nettlewood’s darkest history. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes her mother’s secrets are her own inheritance. In a world where silence protects and truth destroys, Maisy must choose: break the chain, or become its next keeper.
