Threads of Deceit Book 2. A Keilani Germora Mystery

The smoke may have cleared in the town of Willow Creek, but the embers of intrigue and danger are far from extinguished. In this pulse-pounding sequel to "Shadows in a Silent Town, " retired CIA agent turned private detective Keilani Germora is once again called to action.  The sudden disappearance of the town's Mayor-suspected of being the malevolent puppet master behind a local cult-poses more questions than answers.
His parting gift? A second, even more powerful talisman that threatens to unleash a terror that will dwarf the horrors of the past. As new alliances are formed and old ones tested, Keilani must not only confront a rising evil but also face deeply unsettling truths about her family and herself. The boundaries between friend and foe blur in this intricate tapestry of love, betrayal, and dark magic. With a conspiracy that stretches far beyond the town's borders and the emergence of enemies both old and new, Keilani realizes she is part of a much larger, darker narrative that is unfolding around her.  The stakes have never been higher as she ventures deeper into a labyrinth of deceit, coming face to face with an enemy more powerful than she could have ever imagined.
