Whisperbraid Lullaby: A Small-Town Psychological Suspense about Locks, Lemons, and the Bridge at Night

As the river rises and the town prepares for a school concert, a woman who calls herself Marrow watches from the edges—almost pretty, almost kind, and certain she can “keep the child safe” in ways no mother would allow. When hidden cameras are found in a good-luck wooden bird and a lightbulb, when texts arrive from unknown numbers, and when another hunter’s pattern surfaces—the boy named Jonah from last autumn—Nora must choose the door she can close, the danger she can see, and how far a mother’s calm can carry through the night.

Whisperbraid Lullaby is a tense, non-graphic psychological suspense novel set in a river town that pretends it has no history of missing children. It’s about vigilance and obsession, bridges and thresholds, and the thin seam where a stranger’s need meets a mother’s resolve.
