Whispers on the Mountain

A woman vanishes and a reporter will stop at nothing to bring her home alive.

When Celia Patrick arrives at the Bingham Reserve in the North Carolina mountains, something is very wrong. Celia is supposed to be on a much-needed family vacation, but when she hears whispers about a missing woman in the beautiful but treacherous landscape, she can't ignore the pull of the mystery.

Did Pamela Stevens get lost? Was she lying injured on the trail? Or did something more sinister happen? Soon, Celia is mired in the middle of a potential murder investigation, and everyone has something to hide:

• The Type-A Resort Manager
• The Devastated Husband
• The Rest-on-his-Laurels Deputy
• The Grizzled Local Water-Sports Guide

With each passing day, the road to unraveling the mystery grows colder and the odds of finding the lost hiker alive diminish. Despite the risk to her family, her sanity, and her safety, Celia refuses to give up the search. She's been down this dark path of obsession in a case before, and this time she is determined to find the missing woman alive.
