Weight of Guilt (Fog Lake: Homecoming #1)

Ten years ago, seven-year-old Christian Loveless vanished without a trace. On the anniversary of that nightmare, a teenage boy walks back into his family’s life claiming to be Christian.

Hairstylist and single mother Wren Loveless wants desperately to believe her brother has come home. But small things don’t add up, and she can’t afford to watch her family fall apart again.

When a man who might have ties to Christian’s disappearance turns up dead less than a mile from her house, Wren starts to wonder whether the truth is something far more dangerous than mistaken identity.

TBI Agent Nash Hendricks came to Fog Lake to escape his own past, not to get tangled in someone else’s.

But he can’t ignore his next-door neighbors—a family clinging to a fragile reunion while someone in the woods watches and waits.

The closer he gets to Wren, the clearer it becomes that protecting her may mean uncovering a truth she isn’t ready to hear. Wren will do anything to keep her family safe.

But before she can uncover what happened to Christian ten years ago, she has to answer an even more dangerous question: Who exactly has come home?

Weight of Guilt is Book 1 of the Fog Lake: Homecoming trilogy—three sisters, one missing brother, and a decade of secrets.
