Where Family Ties Are Rooted in Murder

A crumbling vineyard.
A long-buried letter.
And bones that refuse to stay hidden.

When graduate student Addison Lane joins a forensic anthropology practicum in the Ozarks, she expects dirt, science, and maybe a few local legends. What she doesn't expect is to unearth a string of shallow graves—and the key to a mystery that connects her past to a decades-old murder.

As Addison, Dr. Svoboda, and their unlikely ally Xander dig deeper into the overgrown rows of Reznik Vineyard, secrets begin to surface—ones tied to Viktor Reznik's final diary, a warning letter never sent, and a cross clutched in the hand of the third victim.

When a former classmate is stalked and Addison becomes the next target, the past turns dangerous—and intensely personal.

Because the final clue isn't buried in the vineyard.

It's buried in her blood.
