February 1-26, 2027 Virtual Book Tour
Synopsis:
A missing girl. A dead body. A past that won’t stay buried.
Aidan Saunders spent ten years building a life that couldn’t be traced. A new name. A ranch in Utah. A wife who never asked too many questions. It’s the closest thing to safety he’s ever known.
Then his seventeen-year-old daughter vanishes from wilderness camp… and a dead man is found in her place.
As a desperate search spreads across the mountains of southern Utah, a shocking truth begins to emerge… one that will expose long-buried secrets, fracture families, and force a group of unlikely allies to decide how much they’re willing to sacrifice to bring Ruth home.
Because survival isn’t just about staying alive.
Blending a small-town murder mystery with buried identities, a family’s secret past, and a conspiracy that reaches beyond Cedar City, 72 HOURS IN CEDAR by JL Calder is a high-stakes crime thriller about the lies we keep… and what happens when the truth finally catches up.
Perfect for readers who love the twisty suspense of Riley Sager, the fast-paced crime thrillers of James Patterson and the dark secrets of Harlan Coben.
