Beneath the Earth is the new thriller by K. L. Dempsey, which features private investigator Alexandra Johnson. Alexandra has recently resigned from her job as an elite investigator for the successful firm of Kate Heller Patterson and has now opened her own agency in the alleged haunted library of Deer Valley, Illinois. Her delight in owning her own firm has suddenly put her face-to-face with the need to solve the tragic disappearance of the region's most famous author. Immediately it becomes clear that this is not the work of an amateur or that of the novelist's beautiful unfaithful wife, but rather someone with a calculating and efficient program to steal from those now living, something most precious to each of their hearts. Alex's past reputation as a crime solver is put to test when the city of Deer Valley suffers through a series of crimes that rip through the town on its way toward the gates of their historical cemetery. It becomes clear that Johnson is on the trail not only of those that have kidnapped the author, but rather someone with a calculating and evil mind. The horrifying secret and truth behind the author's disappearance and what actually is beneath the earth could cost Alex dearly-her job, her newfound love, her future marriage, and even her life.
