ONE-EYED JACK HAS RETURNED…
FBI crime analyst Kili Brennan has come to Boone Creek, in the Appalachian foothills of Kentucky, looking for her missing brother...looking for answers. Instead, she finds a world of suspicion and superstition. Locals say her brother, and a string of others, may have been killed by One-Eyed Jack-the fabled giant guardian that protects the fantastic archaeological monument he was researching. As Kili's search intensifies, the danger escalates, and the only person that can help her is a man whose mysterious past might be just as frightening, and infinitely more dangerous, than the dark secrets she is determined to uncover. A man named Ezekiel Crane.
Praise for Holloway:
“Not since Preston & Child’s Agent Pendergast has there been a more mysterious, charming and fun to read sleuth as Ezekiel Crane. His mixture of southern charm, dark history and scientific know-how is intoxicating.”
—Jeremy Robinson, bestselling author of
Island 731
and
Omega
“Holloway skillfully weaves a back-woods tapestry of Sherlock Holmes with TV’s
Supernatural
and
Justified
into a thrilling Appalachian story of magic and mayhem. Join Ezekiel Crane, and bring your ten-demon bag for [this] Dark Hollows adventure.”
—Kane Gilmour, bestselling author of
Ragnarok
and
The Crypt of Dracula
