A dead radio. A vanished children’s choir. A hymn no one was supposed to remember.Detective Lottie Mae Surratt has learned that the dead do not call unless the living have lied first.When a twelve-year-old girl hears children singing from the locked balcony of an abandoned church, Lottie is pulled into one of Mercy Ridge’s oldest wounds: the 1978 disappearance of the Canaan Ridge Children’s Choir. The official story says the children were lost in a storm. But the church has no power, the radios have no batteries, and the voices coming through the static know Lottie by name.Inside Canaan Ridge Chapel, every clue points to something worse than an accident. Missing shoes. Cut hymnals. Sealed church records. A hidden room behind the choir wall. Children renamed, moved, and buried beneath respectable language.As Lottie follows the song through old trusts, adoption files, family secrets, and the road her father once feared, she discovers that the choir did not vanish because of the storm.The storm only helped the town pretend.Now the children are singing again, and this time they want the final verse heard.Southern Gothic, supernatural crime, and psychological horror collide in the third Lottie Mae Surratt novel - a chilling mystery about the sins polite towns bury and the dead who refuse to stay quiet.
