Blue Moon by Jen Talty

Maverick and Hensley embark on a perilous odyssey, peeling back layers of deceit in a town where tranquility masks a dangerous game of power and greed.

Maverick Snow, an ex-military man with a history as deep as his silence, finds solace behind the bar of Blue Moon, a haven he owns with his brothers in the serene Lake George. Known for his quiet strength and watchful demeanor, Maverick has traded combat tactics for serving drinks and has made the bar a local landmark. He had everything he thought he wanted—then she walked into the bar, and his whole world changed.
Hensley Patterson’s latest case is intensely personal. The investigation takes a dramatic turn when Hensley uncovers a link between Lara’s disappearance and Maverick’s bar.

Maverick finds himself entangled in Hensley’s quest as it becomes clear that the stakes are higher than they imagined. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey to unravel a network of lies and corruption, risking everything to expose the truth, threatening to set off a chain reaction that could consume the town and everyone in it.
