Eleven Minutes: An Epistolary Horror Thriller

An investigative journalist named Abel Lambert drives out to the misty, isolated expanse of the Potomac Highlands based on a tip. He expects to find a true-crime story. It begins with three impossible cases.

• A missing persons report for a woman named Madison Cooper.
• A missing persons report for a man named John Noe.
• The autopsy of a man named Michael Kennedy, who is found exsanguinated and frozen solid.

What Lambert finds in the mountains of West Virginia is a case that refuses to close. A boyfriend with fractured memories. A violent snake-handling cult. Soil chemistry that matches nothing on Earth. Evidence that points in three irreconcilable directions at once, and none of them lead anywhere safe.

A party in the woods. Strange lights in the sky. An entire crowd missing exactly eleven minutes of time. What the hell happened to Maddy Cooper?

Assembled from 99 exhibits comprising forensic reports, phone transcripts, diary fragments, and hypnotic regressions, this isn't a book; it's an open case.
