Black Violet

Quick Reads, Book 7

In the haunted city of Ashridge, memory isn’t just fragile—it’s dangerous.

Black Violet is more than a detective agency. It’s the last defense against mysteries that rewrite reality. Run by three women bound by fate and fractured timelines, the agency unravels cases whispered through forgotten letters, broken timepieces, and photographs that shouldn't exist.

Across ten interconnected investigations—each darker than the last—Dakota, Brooke, and Alice confront ghosts both literal and metaphorical, uncovering a conspiracy of erased identities, buried legacies, and a force that’s been archiving their lives before they were even born.

The truth doesn’t want to be found. But Black Violet doesn’t ask for permission.
