Serendipity Sellers Case 05: Echoes and Ashes
Some things don't stay buried. Some things don't stay whole.
After surviving the events in San Diego, Serendipity Sellers is ready for something simpler.
A quiet few weeks in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
A little hiking.
Maybe, if she's lucky, Bigfoot.
Helen, Georgia seems like the perfect place to disappear into the woods and finish researching her next book. Between eyewitness accounts, local legends, and the endless forests, there are plenty of mysteries to chase.
Most of them are harmless.
Until someone begins watching.
As strange encounters give way to surveillance, hidden agendas, and a conspiracy stretching far beyond the mountains of Appalachia, Ser finds that the search for a legendary creature was never the real investigation. Someone has been searching for something else entirely.
Something ancient.
Something impossible.
Something they intend to control.
What begins as a cryptid expedition erupts into a desperate race from the forests of North Georgia to a secret facility deep in the Texas plains, where an ambitious billionaire believes humanity's future can be engineered, and where the extradimensional being known only as the nothing man is about to confront a truth that could change both worlds forever.
Because some echoes refuse to fade.
And some fires leave more than ashes behind.
Blending supernatural mystery, folklore, dark humor, emotional depth, and high-stakes suspense, Echoes and Ashes is the fifth installment of The Hollow Places. From Bigfoot legends and Appalachian folklore to impossible science and the terrifying cost of trying to own the unknowable, this is the series' biggest and most personal adventure yet.
Perfect for readers who love The X-Files, Supernatural, The Dresden Files, and stories that ask a simple question:
What if the greatest danger isn't the monster we fear... but the person determined to control it?
