Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Last Light on Birchwood Drive is about how an ordinary act of suspicion exposes an extraordinary crime—and how truth, once uncovered, cannot be put back into the dark.
At its core, the book follows Emily Carter, a woman who believes her husband is having an affair. When she follows him to a quiet suburban street, she expects betrayal. Instead, she finds a crime scene—and a young woman whose death is tied not just to her husband’s lies, but to a past he carefully erased.
As investigators peel back layers of deception, the story reveals coercive control, a hidden child, drug trafficking, and a murder disguised as something else. What begins as jealousy becomes a fight for survival, forcing Emily to confront the man she married and the truth she’s been living inside.
Ultimately, the book is about power and silence—how control can hide behind respectability, how victims are trained not to be believed, and how one woman’s decision to speak shatters a carefully constructed life.
It’s a story of exposure rather than mystery: not who committed the crime, but how long it went unnoticed—and what it takes to finally bring the last light to a place built on shadows.
