Award-winning author, John Crawley, returns to his Texas roots to bring us a pulsating love story shrouded in a dark mystery. Beneath Us, his twentieth book, is the tale of Jack Lawrence, a successful author swimming up from his on-again, off-again affair with the bottle, and his former secret lover, Missy Rusk, a celebrated actress and fashion model, being reunited at a family funeral after twenty years of separation. What caused their estrangement? What was the unspeakable incident that drove them apart two decades earlier? Can they find forgiveness for each other, as well as atonement from their unsettling history? Set with the backdrop of the famous slant-hole drilling days of the East Texas Oil Field, believed to be the largest unsolved crime in the history of American business, Beneath Us is the story of lost love mingling with the dark secrets of two families from different rungs on a very congested social ladder and the deceit that occurred 3,500 feet beneath them in the world's richest oil field.
