Where Mercy Stood
A town stood here. The records tell another story.
Two survey drawings. One Wyoming settlement. A version of history someone needed believed. Researcher Tessa Rook follows the discrepancy into a modern death—and a past whose consequences have never stayed buried.
What happened where Mercy stood?

The Fifth Copy
Five copies. One missing original. Whose version would you trust?
A rare photographic album disappears. An archive technician takes the blame. Lena Marr signed the inventory that made the accusation credible. To uncover the theft, she must question the record—and expose the mistake behind her own name.
When every copy tells a different story, who gets believed?

The Sixth Town
The road is familiar. The history isn't.
An offer to leave. A name that does not match. A home Mae Rowan's mother may lose before anyone asks the right question. Beyond the rainbound hill roads, an old record points toward a family history—and a settlement nobody can quite account for.
How do you protect a home built on a story you don't know?
