Her sister fell. That's what the county decided. That's what the coroner signed. That's the lie a dying man just took back.
Casey Yates trains dogs now. After eighteen years in the federal service and one raid that went wrong, the quiet of eighty acres is all he wants — frightened animals he can mend, a porch he rebuilds one board at a time, nobody dead at the end of the day.
Then Hannah Iverson drives up his gravel road with a hospice patient's last confession on a cheap recorder. Her sister didn't slip from that quarry rim eight years ago. Someone moved the body. Someone paid the coroner to look the other way. And the only thing that can pry the case back open is a cold-scent match from a working dog — the one kind of proof the state can't wave off.
Casey's bloodhound is eleven, retired, and has maybe one hard run left in him.
The man they're circling is the most ordinary monster in the county — a father at the rink with his gloves off so his daughter can hear him clap, a neighbor everyone trusts, a man who is never in the room when the bad thing happens. He has money, lawyers, and eight years of getting away with it. The day he feels them coming, he'll bury it all again, deeper this time.
To reach the truth, Hannah will have to walk back onto the rim where her sister died, sit across a kitchen table from the man who put her there, and trust a stranger and his old dog with the one grief she's never let anyone carry. And Casey will have to do the hardest thing a careful man knows: want something again, out loud, while there's still time to lose it.
Buried is a clean, closed-door romantic suspense — an eight-year cold case, a slow-burn second chance between two people who guard their wounds the same way, and the best old dog in the business. North Star K-9 Unit, Book 4. Every book is a complete story with a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
