    Everyone laughs at what southerners call a "snowstorm." A half-inch of the white stuff, and Atlanta panics. 
    No one's laughing this time. 
    A freakish combination of weather elements surpasses even the experts' predictions. Suddenly much of the upper South is covered in several feet of snow. There's never been a storm like this in the region before. Never in recorded history. 
    For Atlanta executive J.C. Riggins, the storm is only one of the killers he'll have to face. 
    In a desperate bid to save his job, his company, and quite possibly his young son's life, Riggins must transport a defense contract to North Carolina. The deadline can't be missed. With airports and roads closed, Riggins sets out in an SUV through a stunned countryside where no one can help him if trouble happens. Which it does, the moment a dangerous criminal joins him for the ride.

    The Reluctant Witness 
    (By Sal Blue) 
    Some truths refuse to stay buried. 
    Detective Darrius Blue thought the nightmare ended when the Confessional Killer was caught. But when a traumatized survivor emerges with whispers of an ancient brotherhood inside the Church—known only as The Order of Clemency—Darrius is pulled back into a web of secrets that reach higher and deeper than he ever imagined. 
    With Detective Sarah Donovan at his side, Blue’s pursuit of justice drags them through a maze of lies, sacred oaths, and silent witnesses who would rather die than speak. Each clue exposes another layer of corruption, each confession another soul lost to penance and power. 
    When a reclusive nun steps forward with evidence too damning to ignore, Blue must decide how far he’s willing to go for the truth—because in this investigation, even the innocent aren’t untouched, and the guilty hide behind holy walls. 
    As old enemies resurface and alliances blur, Blue discovers that salvation and damnation often share the same confessional. 
    Faith. Guilt. Vengeance. Redemption. 
    In The Reluctant Witness, the line between them is razor-thin—and crossing it may cost Darrius Blue everything.
