“Long story short, maybe it was all a lie.
But what really is truth these days,
if not the stories we tell?
Nevertheless, gather round here
and listen close to a story
about a man named Jack.”

The Wayfinder
Gunner Rhodes has never had a place to call home. He’s spent the entirety of his sixteen years, hopping between cities with his mom, who ran away from home when she was eighteen. Due to dire circumstances, they’re forced to return to her hometown and start over.
Gunner was never told about North Hollow, his grandparents, or a half-sister until he and his mom return. He’s an outsider, a metaphorical gentile, who starts to see this tight-knit community, and even the place itself, is not what it seems. As he builds his new life, he is met with the stark reality that not even he is what he seems. As he uncovers the stories and hiddenness of his ancestors, he starts to realize this town he never knew existed, is a place he’s been before.
Andria O’Connell was orphaned by her mother at only four weeks old and left to be raised by her religious grandparents in North Hollow. Now, at eighteen, she is a status symbol of devotion to God and purity in her hometown evangelical church.
Her identity starts to unravel after a murder in North Hollow — the final death knell is her long-lost mother’s return. Equal parts light and darkness are shed to a truth she never imagined, or thought possible.
But all this begins with a man named Jack– his murder, and by some definition, his resurrection. He is seen and unseen — a silver thread throughout the entire narrative shifting the fate of everyone in North Hollow.
