Arielleville—a small town in the Mississippi Delta with a population of “everybody knows everybody.” For passers-by and drifters, Arielleville is the archetype of a small, southern town. The people breathe out hospitality, the summer days are smothering hot and humid, and locals revel at the mention of an “in-town” trip no matter what the purpose might be. But Arielleville is far from typical. Tired of the noisy, fast-paced city life, Telisha Austin, a well-learned and decorated detective in San Diego, California, moves back to her native state in Mississippi, and settles in Arielleville. Soon she’s assigned to the suicide case of Joseph Reed Jr., a local businessman labeled introvert, the son of a prominent family in Arielleville. While trying to tie up the many loose ends in her investigation, Austin is quickly engulfed in a bizarre world of murder, betrayal, kidnapping, and a heated love-triangle that just might jeopardize her case—and her life. Follow Detective Austin as she finds herself facing supernatural entities and placed in compromising and deadly situations. Trust no man, woman, and not to mention demon in this action-packed novel—Sacred Ground has the epitome of surprise endings.
