Now and Then

A woman sleuth. A cold case. A town full of secrets—and a sister fighting a battle of her own. Taylor Gray has traded her badge for a fresh start. Alongside her husband Sam, she's launched Graystone Investigations—a private detective agency fueled by grit, intuition, and an unwavering pursuit of justice. Their latest case? A high-stakes cold case that could overturn a decade-old conviction. A man has spent years behind bars for a brutal crime—but did he do it? Or was he simply the easiest target in a town eager to close the file? Hired by the man's devoted sister, Taylor and Sam dig deep into a web of missing evidence, forgotten leads, and truths buried under years of silence. Back home in Hart's Ridge, Taylor's younger sister Anna is fighting a quieter battle—one that's just as harrowing. Suspended from her job as an ER nurse after being accused of theft, Anna is determined to clear her name. But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the lies become—especially when her ex-husband's powerful family is pulling the strings. With a blossoming romance on shaky ground and her children caught in the crossfire, Anna must decide how much she's willing to risk to reclaim her life. As the Gray sisters fight for justice—one in a courtroom, the other in a hospital hallway—they'll learn that sometimes the truth isn't just hidden… It's protected by those who fear it most. From the bestselling author of Hart's Ridge comes a gripping new chapter in the series—woven with heart, family, suspense, and the kind of justice only the Gray women can deliver.
