Buried in Millbrook

In the quiet suburb of Millbrook, former state trooper Ray Keller lives a fragile peace, his lungs scarred by chemical exposure during a covert overseas mission. When anonymous letters begin to expose long-buried secrets among his neighbors, a chain of violence erupts, turning every resident into both victim and perpetrator. As Ray confronts a lie he thought had been sealed in ash, he discovers that even the most meticulous deception cannot withstand the slow stripping of time. This darkly comic crime saga, in the vein of Donald E. Westlake, explores whether a shattered man can rewrite his destiny on the ashes of a collapsing neighborhood.
