Thirteen years ago, Hailey Gallagher’s life was torn apart one fateful summer’s night. The love of her life broke her heart, she was brutally attacked and left for dead, and her mother was murdered - her sister arrested and convicted for the heinous crime. Wanting to outrun her past, Hailey left town and never looked back.

Sara Gallagher desperately wants to prove her innocence...but she wants revenge even more. She spent thirteen years being silent, caged for a crime she didn’t commit. Now, she’s free. And the secrets that were buried with her mother will soon surface. And Sara will be the one holding the shovel.

When new evidence comes to light, it leads to a tangled web of lies and deceit as someone works to keep the truth hidden. Now, Hailey and Sara must trust each other in order to find the real killer; all while trying to keep their own secrets hidden. And sparks start to ignite when Hailey seeks out help from Trey Harbor, the man who shattered her heart all those years ago.

Because the once quaint and quiet town of Auburndale, Florida has now become the hunting ground of a ruthless killer. But the more secrets they uncover, the more desperate this killer becomes…

Someone wants their secrets to stay buried and they'll do whatever it takes to keep them in the grave.

Kept in the Dark is the prequel in the Trinity Harbor series and must be read first before beginning the series.
