A new mystery from Randall Silvis, critically acclaimed master of
crime fiction When powerful men pull strings to get what they
want... someone almost always ends up dead There's not much that
would convince retired police sergeant Ryan DeMarco to take on
another private investigation case, but he can't refuse a
nine-year-old Michigan girl begging for help finding her biological
father. The road trip to the Upper Peninsula promises DeMarco and
his partner, Jayme, a chance to heal from their last case, which
ended in a traumatic brush with death for DeMarco. But things
aren't as they first appear in the woods of Michigan, and the
seemingly simple paternity investigation soon morphs into something
deadly. The deeper DeMarco, Jayme, and the rest of their team dig,
the more ugly truths they reveal, all while doing their best to
keep one member of their team, from falling prey to her own kind of
darkness. This investigation just might be the most emotionally
troubling one DeMarco and Jayme have yet encountered, for there are
plenty of people who will do whatever it takes to shut them down
before the truth comes to light. Acclaimed author Randall Silvis

loneliness, and betrayal all while fighting the worst parts of
humanity. He's earned a break, and following the devastation of
their last case, DeMarco and his girlfriend Jayme want nothing more
than to live quietly in each other's company. To forget the horrors
they've experienced and work on making each other whole again. But

A triple homicide in a small Pennsylvania town is no small event.
And when one of the locals is a writer with a hefty dose of
curiosity, the secrets that people have been trying their best to
hide never stay hidden for long... Acclaimed author Randall Silvis
pushes the boundaries of crime fiction with The Deepest Black, a
gripping and twisty novel written in the style of a true crime
memoir that blends fact and fiction and leaves the reader guessing
every step of the way.
When family man and war veteran Russell loses his job as a quarry
worker, his life suddenly seems more like a waking nightmare than a
chance to finally live the American dream. Facing bills, a new
baby, and a bone-dry bank account, he's got nothing left to lose.
Russell comes to the rescue of a naked stranger dancing in the
rain, and what was supposed to be a straightforward good deed turns
into a spiral of danger. When Russell finds an enticing stash of
money in the woman's house, he knows the cash could be his only
hope. Taking just a handful will save his family's future. His
"victimless crime" seems to be anything but risky-until the
criminals he robbed come looking for their dirty money. Russell's
ready to surrender it, but then his daughter gets sick...and he
must choose between saving her or giving the devils their due.
Someone's going to pay. The question is, how much?
In this novel an old man is telling a boy the same story he has
told him hundreds of times before, so that now the boy can correct
him on his errors, omissions, and embellishments. It is a lyric
story of bittersweet memories and the enduring power of a love the
old man has felt since his boyhood for Lucia Luna, a once beautiful
girl, now a bitter old woman, destroyed by the jealousy and
superstition of her village.
