True crime podcaster Maisy Farley's second case finds her digging into the details of a legend that's been passed around for nearly one hundred and fifty years.
Just outside Pittsburgh lies Dead Man's Hollow, a place steeped in spine-tingling ghost stories, dark secrets, and whispers of the supernatural handed down from generation to generation. One tale, in particular, has never been confirmed. Legend has it that back in the 1880s, two daring bank robbers chose this hollow as the meeting spot to divvy up their ill-gotten gains. But things took a deadly turn when greed and betrayal won out. One robber turned his weapon on his partner and pulled the trigger. With the money concealed deep in the woods, the surviving robber vanished into the night, leaving behind a corpse and a fortune.
Now, after nearly a century and a half, a woman claiming to be the great-great-granddaughter of the ill-fated bank robber seeks Maisy's expertise to learn what really happened that long-ago night in Dead Man's Hollow. Drawn into the web of intrigue, Maisy and Jordana, her unflappable producer, work to separate fact from fantasy. Their investigation lands them on a collision course with treasure hunters, ghost chasers, and an eerie psychic who warns of another impending death in the hollow. Everybody has an agenda, and nobody can be trusted.
Strap in for a rollercoaster ride of dizzying twists and hairpin turns as Maisy uncovers the truth with her trademark blend of wit, charm, and determination.
