For The Dead

by D.J. Davis, T.R. Kerby

Every grave keeps a secret.Toby Maddox has long listened to the whispers of the dead, but nothing can prepare her for the nightmare about to erupt from the forgotten graves of Elkhorn. As she struggles to piece together her shattered childhood, Toby is dragged into a world of gruesome murders and whispered legends where secrets fester like wounds.

Alongside Christian—a hardened investigator whose haunted heart mirrors her own—Toby must confront the malevolent spirit of Abel Younger before it consumes her. When every revelation reveals another ghost waiting to be unearthed, only the courage to face their inner demons can save them.

Bound by loss, betrayal, and guilt, Toby and Christian must lay to rest a past that keeps clawing its way back. The ultimate price of redemption might be their intertwined destiny—or their very souls.
