Decades apart two journalists embark on a thrilling journey into murder, betrayal and discovery.
In 2025, Maeve Canfield, while clearing her mother’s house following her death, discovers a hidden cardboard box which contained a journal and other papers.
In 1985, a late night phone call to journalist Patrick Cahill set in motion a search would push Cahill into a murky world of betrayals and uncertainty.
As Maeve sought to discover who Cahill was and what his relationship with her mother might have been, Cahill investigated the death of Harlan Thompson and why he was killed. Their two worlds would come together forty years later.
“What a superb novella! Suspenseful, well-written, captivating, carefully choreographed across different time periods, interesting, local, and etc.”
Bob Korte
“As an avid reader of mysteries from Patterson to Grisham and all in between and I found Cahill's Journal as good a mystery read as those. Read it, you will really enjoy the suspense and the style.”
Donald F. Lavanty, J.D. Professor, Marymount University
