The fall of the Heirs

A mystery buried in time. Three men on the trail of a dark cult. A truth too dangerous to reveal.

New York, 2010. Writer Thomas Chase is found lifeless in his bedroom. Beside him, the motionless body of his mother. A double murder? A suicide? Or the beginning of something far more sinister?

Hidden Ville, a suburb of Los Angeles, ten years later. Young Sarah Brown vanishes without a trace. Her father, Detective Stephen Brown, is left powerless in the face of an enigma that defies all logic. Who took his daughter? And why?

San Grivio di Torrenera, Italy, months later. Commissioner Giorgio Tressani stumbles upon a chilling revelation that drags his own family into a nightmare rooted deep in the past.

Three cities. Three men. Three destinies intertwined by an unseen enemy.

Lurking in the shadows is a powerful and elusive sect: The Heirs. No one knows who they are, no one understands their motives. But one thing is certain: their plan is already in motion, and anyone who gets too close to the truth risks being swallowed by darkness.

From the gripping mind of James Halloran, based on his first three novellas-including The Disappearance of Sarah Brown and The Mystery of the Aztec Curse-comes a high-stakes thriller that blends mystery, conspiracy, and the occult in a pulse-pounding narrative.
