Klappentext

Nineteen-year-old Clara Bell Hartley is only minutes from home when her journey ends on a deserted mountain road. By morning, a quiet North Carolina town is consumed by questions. Why had Clara become afraid to travel alone? Who was waiting near the road that night? And what secret had she been too frightened to share? Years pass, but the mystery never releases its hold on the Hartley family. Clara's mother preserves her bedroom exactly as she left it, while rumors, suspicions, and buried resentments spread through the community. Then an unexpected discovery brings the past dangerously close again. As old memories begin to shift and forgotten witnesses reconsider what they saw, one unsettling possibility emerges: Clara's death may not have been random-and someone has spent decades making sure the truth stays hidden. Inspired by real events, Half a Mile from Home is a haunting, emotional mystery thriller about grief, obsession, and the secrets that can survive in a town where everyone knows your name-but no one tells the whole truth.
