Hidden Scars
“With it's strong sense of place, depiction of racial tension that still lingers in the new South, and appealing sleuths, de Castrique's well-plotted mystery is a winner.”

About This Book
Private investigators Sam Blackman and Nakayla Robertson are hired to reexamine the seventy-year-old death of Paul Weaver, officially ruled an accidental fall. The case seems impossible - until a witness connected to Weaver leaves a message suggesting new evidence and is then murdered. Leads tied to Black Mountain College, wartime memory, and a modern film production turn the cold case hot. As another killing follows, Sam and Nakayla confront the question at the center of the file: what happened in the postwar years that someone still wants erased?
