What happens when a story refuses to end with the final page?
Chicago is gripped by a string of mysterious murders. At first glance, the crime scenes—and the victims—appear to have only two things in common: books and a strange bookmark. Detective Andrew Hudginson and his partner, Ben Turner, soon discover that it is no ordinary object. The bookmark reveals what its reader desires most—then brings to life what should have remained trapped between the pages.
The investigation draws them toward a secret guarded for centuries, while the force behind the bookmark reaches into Andy's most painful memories. To solve the case, he must answer the question that has haunted him all his life. But every answer opens another door—and some things cannot be read without consequence.
THE BOOKMARK is a supernatural thriller about the power of stories, the weight of loss, and the price we pay to reclaim what we were never able to let go.
