Publisher Description:

A filmmaker dies before completing the movie he believes will expose a decades-old murder. Someone is determined to make sure it is never finished.

When acclaimed filmmaker Rafe Cardoc dies unexpectedly during production of his latest movie, the project appears destined to end with him. But Noah Sterling is drawn into completing the film, honoring a promise that soon becomes something far more dangerous.

As Noah retraces Rafe's steps through Georgia's haunting Okefenokee Swamp, he uncovers a trail of forgotten evidence surrounding the disappearance of a young woman more than fifty years earlier. Every answer leads to new questions. Every discovery reveals another secret someone has worked a lifetime to keep hidden.

Then the impossible begins to happen.

In the lonely silence of the swamp, Noah experiences unsettling moments that defy explanation, subtle reminders that the past is never truly gone and that some voices refuse to be silenced.

With the truth drawing ever closer, Noah must decide how much he is willing to risk to finish the story Rafe started before those determined to protect the past make sure history stays buried forever.

Rich in Southern atmosphere and layered with mystery, The Weight of Blue blends unforgettable characters, long-buried secrets, and just a whisper of the supernatural into a suspenseful story that will stay with readers long after the final page.

Some secrets sink. Others wait beneath the surface.
