Long Shadows: An Adam Alba Mystery (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798987254820)

Adam Alba has spent years drifting from town to town, outrunning a past marked by trauma, an intuition he doesn't fully understand, and a lingering sense that someone is always watching.

When he gets off a bus in a small, quiet town, all he wants is a hot shower and a good night's sleep. But when a man collapses at his feet, gasping his final breath, what first appears to be an accident quickly reveals itself as something far more calculated.

Within hours, Adam finds himself the prime suspect in a murder investigation that has rocked the seemingly idyllic town of Ur. In a close-knit community where whispers travel faster than the truth, Adam discovers he's wandered into a labyrinth of decades-old grudges, buried scandals, and lethal secrets. Some locals eye him with suspicion; others seem eager to confide in this stranger.

As the body count rises and the evidence leads to impossible conclusions, Adam faces a harrowing choice: blindly trust in justice-or delve deeper into Ur's twisted heart to expose a killer who may be closer than he ever imagined.

From the first shocking death to the breathtaking conclusion, this atmospheric thriller follows a reluctant hero haunted by his past, unraveling a small town where the deadliest sins cast the longest shadows.
