The Lost Mile

di Carter James (Autore)

Black Lantern Publishing, 2026

The job was supposed to be routine. Cut the trees. Grade the land. Lay the new road. But when foreman Jack Turner's crew breaks ground on a remote bypass project, they uncover something no map shows - a perfectly preserved mile of highway buried beneath two feet of soil. No records. No explanation. Just asphalt where nothing should exist. As the discovery draws attention from engineers, officials, and people who don't want questions asked, Jack realizes the road wasn't forgotten - it was deliberately erased. Fifty years earlier, a county investigator named Thomas Merritt uncovered financial corruption tied to that same road. Days later, he vanished. Now, as Jack follows the trail Merritt left behind - hidden documents, suppressed reports, and a chain of silence stretching across decades - he finds himself up against powerful interests willing to protect the past at any cost. Because the road didn't just hide a crime. It hid the people who knew about it. Tense, layered, and grounded in meticulous realism, The Lost Mile is a gripping thriller about truth, memory, and the quiet persistence of justice - where every answer lies buried, and every step forward risks uncovering something worse.
