The Shaft At Devil's Hollow

The Shaft at Devil’s Hollow Deep in the Tri-State mining country, an abandoned lead shaft long sealed after a deadly cave-in is said to hold more than ghosts. When a former miner dies clutching a map marked only Devil’s Hollow, Frank Stryker and Bear follow a trail into flooded tunnels, company corruption, and murders buried with the mines. Locals whisper of a shaft deliberately drowned to hide a killing. At the edge of the hollow, Frank learns the collapse was no accident. Years ago, union men, crooked mine owners, and hired gunmen fought over a ledger that could expose stolen claims and murder. That ledger may still lie somewhere below the black water. But others are hunting it too. As Frank descends through rotten timbers, flooded drifts, and forgotten chambers, he uncovers a conspiracy thought buried beneath the chat piles—and a killer willing to make sure the shaft keeps its dead. In Devil’s Hollow, some secrets don’t stay underground.
