The Books
Androscoggin After Dark
Four seasons. One river.
Androscoggin After Dark is a dark romantic suspense and North Country crime series set along the fictionalized backroads, rivers, motels, logging roads, firegrounds, small towns, and forgotten places of northern New Hampshire.
Each book reveals another layer of the mystery, another secret from the riverbank, and another reason the North Country should never be underestimated.
Best read in order.
Book One
When the River Freezes
Available Now
Tagline: A frozen river. A buried secret. A motel room no one wanted reopened.
A cold river. A forgotten motel room. A woman who thought she had buried the past — until the North Country gave it back.
In When the River Freezes, the first cracks appear in the silence surrounding the North Star Motel, a missing woman, and the secrets buried deep in a small town that remembers more than it admits.
Available now in Kindle and paperback. Free with Kindle Unlimited. Audiobook coming soon.
Book Two
When the River Thaws
Preorder Now — Releases July 1
Tagline: Room 9 was locked for a reason.
Sienna Lavoie spent years trying to lock away what came with her family name: the whispers, the stigma, and the motel room no one ever forgot.
She thought the worst of it was buried in the mud.
Then the river began to thaw.
As old evidence rises and dangerous men grow nervous, Sienna is pulled into a search that reaches through motel records, washed-out roads, missing time, and the people who believed the North Country would stay quiet forever.
Available for preorder. Kindle and paperback. Free with Kindle Unlimited at release.
Book Three
When the River Runs
Coming August 1
Tagline: Some secrets do not stay buried. They travel downstream.
Summer brings dust, heat, swollen water, bad decisions, and a danger that refuses to stay upstream.
As the story widens beyond the first locked rooms and buried evidence, the river carries the truth into darker places — through trails, roads, old loyalties, and the kind of violence that spreads when powerful people panic.
Kindle and paperback coming August 1.
Book Four
When the River Burns
Coming September 1
Tagline: The truth always finds a spark.
By autumn, the North Country is ready to burn.
The secrets that began with a frozen river finally ignite, forcing every hidden name, buried truth, and dangerous loyalty into the open.
In the final book of the season, the river remembers everything — and this time, it is not keeping quiet.
Kindle and paperback coming September 1.
