A scream cuts through the scanner.

Then the signal goes dead.

No one else remembers hearing it.


For years, Jules Jenkins has spent her nights listening to emergency radio traffic in Black Raven County. The voices are familiar. The routines are predictable. The static has become a comfort.

Until the night she hears a terrified woman scream.

Moments later, the transmission disappears beneath a burst of dead air.

Everyone insists it was interference.

Jules knows better.

As she begins searching for answers, old wounds resurface. Twenty-three years earlier, her sister Rachel vanished without a trace. The case was never solved. The questions never stopped.

Then another woman dies.

A county investigator leaves behind a trail of hidden records, altered files, and warnings someone desperately wanted buried. The deeper Jules digs, the more she becomes convinced that Rachel's disappearance and the strange transmissions are connected.

But some secrets survive because people are willing to kill to protect them.

And some memories are lost for a reason.

As the truth closes in, Jules discovers that the most dangerous thing in Black Raven County isn't what she remembers.

It's what she forgot.

DEAD AIR is a twist-filled psychological thriller packed with buried secrets, small-town mysteries, shocking revelations, and a final truth that changes everything.
