In Ash Hollow, Tennessee, secrets don't stay buried.
They wait.
When Noah Bennett disappears on the night of his birthday, the town quickly decides he must have run away. His abandoned truck, a bloodstained barn, and a violent confrontation with Marcus Brooks seem to point toward an obvious answer.
But Sheriff Wade Collins has spent too many years in Ash Hollow to trust an easy story.
Emma Carter knows more than she is willing to admit. Hidden inside her cardigan is the one piece of evidence the entire town is searching for-Noah's phone. Its cracked screen holds unanswered calls, unfinished messages, and the warning that sent him into the darkness.
As Wade begins uncovering the missing minutes from Noah's final night, old loyalties fracture and long-buried truths rise to the surface. Marcus is forced to confront the family he abandoned, Emma must face the guilt she has carried for years, and one respected man's desperate attempt to protect his son threatens to destroy everyone Noah died trying to save.
Because Noah wasn't running away.
He was trying to come home.
Set in a small Appalachian town where neighbors know everything except the truth, The Hours Between is an emotional mystery about grief, guilt, forgiveness, and the devastating difference between loving someone and believing they belong to you.
