The Cabin in the Hollow
A Mystery Novel

About this book:

Deep in the mist‑shrouded valleys of Hollow Creek, a retired professor vanishes without a trace, leaving behind only a torn journal page that whispers of footsteps on the roof and a single, desperate word: **MINE**. Detective Frank Mercer, weary and world‑worn, arrives expecting a routine missing‑person case—only to discover a town that holds its breath, a sheriff with secrets, and a century‑old silver mine that has swallowed strangers whole.

As Mercer follows fresh footprints to a hidden tunnel, uncovers cryptic letters from a long‑dead cabin owner, and hears the unmistakable scrape of claws on shingles at midnight, the line between myth and murder blurs. Every clue pulls him deeper into a web of buried bodies, forgotten ledgers, and a powerful lineage that will kill to keep the mine’s darkness hidden.

*The Cabin in the Hollow* is a chilling, atmospheric mystery where the past refuses to stay buried, and the truth lies waiting in the shadows—ready to claim anyone who dares to seek it. Will Mercer survive the night, or will Hollow Creek claim another soul? Dive in and find out.
