What to expect
Some towns survive by keeping secrets. Some men survive by breaking them.
Simon Peake was only supposed to pass by Red Hollow — not through it. But when his truck breaks down on the outskirts of the old gold-mining town, he has no choice but to stay. Red Hollow is a place clinging to its heralded past, ruled by powerful men and quieter fear. When a local girl goes missing, the town closes ranks, and silence becomes a form of protection.
Peake knows the signs. Corruption hiding behind smiles. When Peake starts asking questions, the answers lead deep into the hollowed-out ridge above the town — into abandoned mine tunnels where the scars of violence still streak the rock, and ghosts are said to roam.
But ghosts don’t scare Simon Peake.
He pushes where no one else will, his approach as swift and brutal as anything the town can throw back at him. As secrets surface and Red Hollow begins to tear itself apart, Peake makes a decision: he won’t just expose the rot — he’ll burn it out at its source.
