Rooted in Silence: Some Roots Grow Deeper in the Dark (Root & Vein Trilogy Book I)

Part I of a III Part Series

She’s planning the perfect wedding. She’s also planning the perfect murder.

Emily Byrd has everything she ever a beautiful home, a perfect fiancé, and the wedding of her dreams just days away. But perfection has always felt like a performance and Emily has grown tired of playing her part.

Behind closed doors, she’s plotting something unthinkable. Her fiancé, Remmy Black, trusts her with his life. He shouldn’t.

Lurking on the edges of their quiet neighborhood is Miss Volkova, the enigmatic neighbor whose watchful presence unsettles Emily in ways she can’t explain. And then there’s Matt, Remmy’s best friend, whose loyalty to Remmy makes him dangerously curious... too close to uncovering secrets Emily would kill to protect.

As the wedding approaches, Emily’s carefully tended plans begin to fray. The question isn’t whether she can go through with it-it’s whether she can keep anyone from noticing until it’s too late.

Dark, tense, and unsettling, Rooted in Silence is a psychological thriller about obsession, secrets, and the twisted lengths we go to for control.
