A missing sister. A past that won’t let go. A crossroads leading to salvation or lost humanity.

It’s June 1976 on Florida’s Gulf Coast when private investigator Jason Jensen’s dependable Wednesday night call from his kid sister, Jillian, never comes. Within hours he’s chasing whispers—an abandoned car, a deli order left unclaimed, a pale stranger with haunted eyes. When Jillian is spotted at a Tallahassee bank and “breadcrumbs” begin to appear—strands of long blonde hair, a cherished bracelet—Jason realizes Jillian is leaving a trail only he will read.

The search drags him inland to Poe Lakes, a tight-knit community where gossip travels faster than the sheriff’s radio and help arrives in the form of Southern ladies, diner waitresses, and one sharp-eyed realtor. As Jason closes in, he uncovers a slick new drug enterprise led by a man who believes he can turn crime into “business”—and bend good people to his will.

Haunted by the violent death of his wife, Jason must balance cool detective work with a brother’s desperation. To bring Jillian home alive, he’ll have to trust strangers, outsmart killers, and confront everything grief has made him fear.

Perfect for fans of small-town mysteries with heart, high stakes, and 1970s vibes—where courage, community, and family love light the way through the dark.
