In The Shadow Of A Broken Spire

The school year at Blair High School is off to a tragic start when one student, Martin Welch, is found brutally murdered. Residents of the small town descend into a spiral of fear as they search for the person responsible for the horrific crime. As BHS senior, Jaycie Brogdon, tries to navigate the turbulence of her community coming undone, she discovers cracks within the seams of her own family.

Blame begins to shift inward, and soon residents are certain that Martin Welch's murderer is one of their own. Fingers point toward Stuart Reinhart, Blair High School's literature teacher. Tensions rise as many suggest that the books in Mr. Reinhart's lessons are inappropriate, even immoral. This opens the door for history to repeat itself in Blair. The town's past is unearthed as the heart of a witch once used as a scapegoat continues to beat. The townspeople's fear and hatred grows into a thirst for retribution.
