Every foundation has a flaw. Some are just better at hiding the cracks.
Claire Sterling is a dedicated history teacher and a struggling real estate agent, but she's about to learn that in the town of Fairwood, the past isn't just buried-it's profitable. When her mentor, Arthur Henderson, retires abruptly and leaves her a cryptic listing on Elm Street, Claire discovers a world of Ghost Listings and hollow houses where granite is made of foam and luxury mansions are nothing more than movie sets.
Claire Sterling is a dedicated history teacher and a struggling real estate agent, but she's about to learn that in the town of Fairwood, the past isn't just buried-it's profitable. When her mentor, Arthur Henderson, retires abruptly and leaves her a cryptic listing on Elm Street, Claire discovers a world of Ghost Listings and hollow houses where granite is made of foam and luxury mansions are nothing more than movie sets.
But the fraud runs deeper than real estate. The powerful Miller family isn't just skimming taxes; they are building a ticking time bomb. Using a network of Prohibition-era tunnels to sabotage the town's high school, they are preparing for a structural accident that will bury eighty years of corruption under five hundred tons of debris.
As a midnight deadline looms, Claire must navigate a subterranean maze of secrets with the help of a silent witness and a disgraced principal. But her biggest challenge isn't the Millers-it's the man sleeping in her own bed. Her husband, Sergeant Mark Sterling, is a good cop with a secret from 1996 that the Millers have used as a leash for decades.
In a town built on structural lies, Claire has to decide: Will she protect the man she loves, or will she perform one final audit that could bring the whole house down? HOLLOW HOUSES is a high-stakes thriller for fans of corporate conspiracy, small-town secrets, and the terrifying truth beneath the floorboards.
