The Silence Beneath Us
By Antwan Quintavius Sanders
He once enforced the rules. Now the rules are coming for him.
Elijah Brooks used to wear a badge-not the kind that made him a hero, but the kind that chained him to silence. As a former correctional officer in Florida's toughest prisons, Elijah saw too much, said too little, and left behind a trail of ghosts he's never stopped carrying.
Years later, living in the shadows of the South, Elijah is desperate to bury the man he used to be. But when he stumbles onto a brutal crime scene on a lonely backroad, the past comes roaring back. Scratched into the dirt is a name he thought he'd buried for good-one that ties him to secrets darker than the cells he once patrolled.
As old enemies resurface and bodies begin to fall, Elijah finds himself caught between guilt and survival, haunted by the silence that has defined his life. To protect what's left of his soul, he'll have to confront the truth he swore he'd never tell.
The Silence Beneath Us is a tense, atmospheric Southern noir about redemption, loyalty, and the deadly price of silence. For fans of Dennis Lehane, Attica Locke, and the gritty psychological thrillers of Dean Koontz.
