Before the Tracks Were Laid
A Southern Gothic, Peachtree Plantation Trilogy of Secrets, Survival, and Inheritance

Before the house was inherited
Before the killings began
Before the truth clawed its way to the surface
There were the women

In this haunting collection of three interconnected novellas, Before the Tracks Were Laid unearths the forgotten voices and brutal legacies of a Southern family bound by land, silence, and blood. Set across generations on the cursed grounds of Peachtree, Georgia, these prequels reveal the unspoken history behind the Cheney estate and the women who dared to defy it

In Before the Tracks Were Laid, young Natalie arrives from the North and begins to suspect that her charming Southern cousin is hiding more than cruelty behind his smile

In What Lucy Carried, an enslaved girl finds quiet power through ritual and memory, tasked with protecting a fragile child from a growing darkness no one else will name

And in He Inherits It All, the land itself bears witness as a pregnant bride steps onto cursed soil and the past begins to claw its way forward

A chilling blend of historical fiction, suspense, and Southern folklore, Tracks Beneath the Clay is a slow-burning portrait of inherited trauma and buried truth where every scar has a story and every story has a cost

Perfect for fans of Toni Morrison, Kate Morton, and Where the Crawdads Sing
