This four-book collection gathers the complete Promise Falls arc, delivering a tightly woven sequence of mysteries, family secrets, and escalating danger. Broken Promise introduces David Harwood as he confronts his cousin Marla, whose grief has twisted into something unnerving; inside, Marla cares for a baby that isn’t hers, and she swears it arrived “by an angel.” Far From True follows a shattered family as a private investigator unravels a seemingly routine case that spirals into something far more sinister. The Twenty-Three plunges readers into a day when chaos erupts in the town—virus or conspiracy, the truth will reshape Promise Falls.

Books Included in This Collection:
Broken Promise
David Harwood travels to his cousin Marla’s home, only to encounter a scene that unsettles him: blood on the door and a woman who seems to care for a baby not her own. Marla insists the infant arrived “by an angel,” but David suspects a darker truth lurking behind her fragile calm. Barclay threads paranoia and grief through keen character work and crisp, punchy prose, building a chilling case that foreshadows the ominous mood of Promise Falls. This opening novel sets the tone for the quartet, balancing intimate tragedy with a creeping sense of danger that hooks you from page one.

Far From True
When Lucy Brighton loses her father in a freak accident, she believes someone has infiltrated his home. Her decision to enlist private investigator Cal Weaver pulls readers into a labyrinth of secrets, where every friendship and memory may be a lie. Barclay’s suspense tightens as loyalties shift and danger comes closer to home, delivering a gripping investigation that blends family drama with chilling misdirection. Far From True deepens the Promise Falls mystery, inviting readers to question what’s real and whom to trust as the hunt heats up.

The Twenty-Three
The day in Promise Falls begins like any other—until an unimaginable cascade of deaths floods the town. Hospitals buckle under pressure as investigators scramble for answers. Is this a mass poisoning, a virus, or something more deliberate? Barclay straps readers into a fast-paced, multi-perspective narrative where each discovery raises the stakes. The clock ticks, and the town must confront a threat that may be closer to home than anyone suspects. The Twenty-Three crystallizes the series’ signature blend of intimate character drama and global-scale suspense.

Parting Shot
A young girl is killed by a drunk driver, and the community’s demand for justice roars louder than the traffic on Promise Falls’ streets. As prosecutors, families, and neighbors navigate the fallout, the truth about guilt, culpability, and consequences comes into sharper focus. Barclay crafts a courtroom-thriller atmosphere with emotional punch, showing how a single moment can redefine a town’s sense of right and wrong. Parting Shot delivers a powerful, morally complex finale that lingers long after the last page.
