Haunting Tennessee History – It’s Time The Truth Was Told
Unethical traditions that the powerful work hard to keep secret, bear a fruit that demands a hard-to-pay price in this murder mystery. The year is 1944 and a young girl, the daughter of a prominent attorney, has disappeared. What if this girl's disappearance is linked to the abandoned girl kept hidden away in one of the Shelby County orphanages, what if her disappearance has deeper ties to the town's elite than anyone imagined.

As the search for the kidnapper unfolds, it becomes hauntingly clear that the attorney's young daughter isn't the only child who has gone missing. Despite relentless efforts to find the girl and stop another kidnapping, it's not until the young Tilson girl, a gifted child who hears from the dead, gets involved in the mystery that the crimes start to get solved. Get Spiral and find out what a dead girl and the daughter of a prominent attorney share with an unassuming but gifted African American child, she too the daughter of a prominent, powerful family.

A lot of characters and relationships but family secrets always lead to repercussions and payment on demand. Suspenseful and a page turner.
