Darkening Skies

Deadly secrets hidden for years in a small country town are finally revealed

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Investigative journalist Jenn Barrett never intended to return to Dungirri, the small town she escaped as a teenager. But startling revelations about local man Mark Strelitz have reopened the investigation into the accident that killed Jenn's cousin, Paula, and she is determined to find out what really happened.

For eighteen years, a gap in Mark's memory has concealed the factsβ€”that he was driving when Paula died and a corrupt police investigation sent an innocent man to prison. Mark has finally learnt enough of the truth to know he has to set the record straight.

As Jenn and Mark start to ask questions, evidence is destroyed and witnesses murdered. Someone wants the past to remain buried and anyone probing into it to be stoppedβ€”permanently. Mark and Jenn's discovery will shock the whole town, but only if they live long enough to reveal it.

Darkening Skies by Bronwyn Parry is a gripping tale of suspense and courage, where uncovering the truth might come at the ultimate price.
