South of the City by W.H. Herman



South of the City by W.H. Herman



South of the City

A missing socialite, revenge, politics, romance, murder… welcome to Grove Park!


Crime doesn't stop at the city limits… In a small but affluent upstate New York town, Grove Park detective Pete Webster learns of two seemingly unrelated incidents… a missing-person report and an accidental death. At first, he views the new cases as a welcome distraction from his increasingly troubled personal life…and then another prominent local woman disappears seemingly without a trace, causing the entire town to take notice.
As Webster and his colleagues explore the possibility of a common thread, the investigation reveals a shocking entanglement of previously secret lives, crimes, and romances. Within days Grove Park is thrust into the national spotlight as search helicopters circle overhead and a media horde descends upon the once-tranquil village. 
The ever-widening probe soon requires the support of a task force of county, state, and federal agencies, and the local interest evolves into a national media sensation, fueled by the stunning revelations that become an almost daily occurrence.
Webster’s unpredictable quest to solve the case while dealing with upheaval in his private life becomes a page-turning thriller filled with fascinating characters, set in unique locations.

An excerpt from the review of South of the City at Bonnies Book Talk:

It’s a very clever writer that can write a book and then blow you out of the water because you totally didn’t see the ending coming; it didn’t even occur to me, I was like “wow”!
