2000s: Who would have thought there would be 23 good reasons to visit Promise Falls?
The Twenty-Three (Promise Falls 3)
What you need to know before your trail
It’s the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, May 23rd, and the small town of Promise Falls, New York, has found itself in the midst of a full-blown catastrophe.
Hospitals are being overrun by hundreds of people who are showing similar flu-like symptoms. Many people have even died from this seemingly mass epidemic. Could it be a sinister case of a polluted water supply and if so how did it happen. What private investigator Cal Weaver wants to know is just who would benefit from such a mass poisoning?
Meanwhile, Detective Barry Duckworth is faced with another problem. A college student has been murdered, and he’s seen the killer’s handiwork before—in the unsolved homicides of two other women in town. Suddenly, all the strange things that have happened in the last month start to add up…
Many of the murder scenes appear to be linked to the number 23 – whether is be bloody mannequins found in car “23” or an out of control bus with “23” on the back.
But what does it all mean and will anyone be able to find out?

Promise Falls
Promise Falls is not a real place and by what goes on here and what kind of people live there and what they get up to, it’s probably just as well. It’s a small town in Upstate New York just north of Albany according to the author so what could be so unique about this place?
It’s the hometown of David Harwood a reporter who in book one returns to his childhood haunts only to find a lot more than he bargained for. In book two, there was a drive through movie theatre which exploded killing many of its inhabitants. And now a mass outbreak of something. The town affects everyone who comes here even for a day, and those who live here seem to be an odd batch of characters. It’s supposedly a small, quaint town where the community is tight and nothing much really happens. But now there is really something taking place – there must be something in the water right? Oh…wait…
