"The twists keep coming! It's a page turner all the way through!" -Corey Farrenkopf, author of _Living in Cemeteries_ and _Haunted Ecologies_

When Benjamin Cole's 83-yr-old father commits suicide, he's thrust into a dark family secret that had been hiding in plain sight. With the task of selling the old family farm, repressed memories and chilling discoveries force him to confront the horrors that lie inside it.

But when his girlfriend's son is kidnapped, Benjamin must figure out what is reality and who is family. Because in order to save the child, Benjamin will have to learn the truth of his father-and who Benjamin himself is.

"Sheldon Higdon's _Dark Roots_ is a deeply disturbing and brilliantly twisted read. Blending the haunting psychological depth of _True Detective_, the relentless tension of _To Catch a Killer_, and the eerie dread of _The Black Phone_, this story grips from the first page and never lets go. It's a nightmarish descent into darkness that will make every parent's skin crawl and stomach turn. A solid 5 Shovels read!" -Thom Erb, author of _Snow Black_, _The Last in Line_, and _Heaven, Hell, or Houston_
