Travel Guide

Promise Falls is a broken town. No jobs. No prospects. Not even a newspaper since the Standard went under. Which means reporter David Harwood is unemployed. But there are still things out there for him to look into, like how his cousin Marla has acquired a baby she swears was given to her by an angel. And what this baby has to do with a vicious murder on the other side of town.

Promise Falls is fictional and it’s just as well really judging by what goes on there and who lives there. What does go on behind closed doors? STay here long enough and you’ll not only find out but probably get dragged into it.
