Some families don't bury their secrets. They drown them.
True-crime podcaster Sloane Merritt already proved that one "accident" in Cedarbell, Georgia was murder - her own mother's. She thought that was the end of it.
She was wrong.
Now the good people of Cedarbell are dying. A heart attack. A fall from a ladder. A drowning in four feet of still water. Six deaths in fourteen weeks - every one ruled natural, every one polished to a shine. The town calls it a terrible season. Sloane calls it a pattern.
Working with Zara Vogel, a Palm Beach forensic investigator who follows the money the way Sloane follows the bodies, she pulls threads no one in Cedarbell is meant to touch: old families, older money, and something underneath both that has kept this town quiet for sixty years - and would rather kill than be named.
Because the deeper Sloane digs, the clearer it becomes: no one in Cedarbell breaks alone - and the tide always comes back for what it left behind.
No One Breaks Alone is the second novel in The Magnolia Series: Southern Gothic domestic suspense set between the magnolias of small-town Georgia and the money of the Florida coast - where good manners hide bad things, and every buried truth waits for someone stubborn enough to dig.
