The Secret at Blackwood House
A hidden room. A thirty-two-year-old disappearance. A secret someone is still willing to kill for. When restoration work at Blackwood House reveals a concealed room behind the library wall, the discovery brings retired investigator Samuel Mercer to the decaying estate. Inside are the belongings and notebook of Evelyn Hart-a young woman who supposedly left town more than three decades ago and was never seen again.
The evidence suggests Evelyn never left Blackwood alive. As Samuel and Sheriff Richard Boone reopen the case, they uncover hidden passages, altered records, fabricated postcards, and a powerful family determined to protect its legacy. But someone else is already searching for the truth-and carefully controlling which pieces of it come to light. When the restoration expert who discovered the room is attacked, the investigation becomes more than a search for answers.
The person guarding Blackwood's secrets is still close, still watching, and prepared to strike again. To solve the mystery, Samuel must reconstruct what happened inside the house on one summer night in 1994-and determine who is rewriting the past before another life is lost. Atmospheric, suspenseful, and filled with buried family secrets, The Secret at Blackwood House is the second Samuel Mercer Mystery.
It can be enjoyed as a standalone novel.
