The Hook Man: The Killer at Lover's Lane

Three years after her sister vanished, Mara Keene returns to Hollow Ridge, South Carolina, determined to learn what happened on Route 117. The town calls Mile Seventeen Lover's Lane. Its oldest story belongs to Harlan Tate-a man with a missing hand, a history of disappearances, and a legend that refuses to stay in the past. When old emergency-radio broadcasts begin transmitting again, Mara follows the signal into mountain roads where storms erase tracks and every warning arrives too late. Someone knows what happened to Ellie. Something is still calling from Lover's Lane. And the closer Mara gets to the truth, the more the Hook Man's story begins to sound like evidence. THE HOOK MAN is a storm-dark Southern Gothic supernatural thriller of sisterhood, disappearance, and a legend carried over the radio.
