Homicide detective Chloe Van Belle is still haunted by her previous case, when she’s called to a brutal crime scene…

A grandmother is slaughtered, her daughter shot and clinging to life, and twin toddlers have vanished into the winter night.

The first twenty-four hours are critical to finding the toddlers alive, but Chloe is second-guessed and undermined by her new sergeant, Adriana Ladera, who doesn’t trust or respect her, doesn’t know the community, and discourages work comradery.

As Chloe chases leads, the twins’ mother becomes her prime suspect until Chloe discovers a link to the Encounters cult-like church and whispers of a decades-old adoption ring rooted in Halpin River. Chloe struggles to separate her past with the church and her tangled family ties from the case.

Navigating serpentine twists, Chloe won’t rest until she finds the missing children—no matter how deadly it becomes.

Sins in the Dark is a gripping detective thriller filled with shocking twists, chilling cult secrets, and a relentless hunt for justice.
