Somewhere by Matthew Reed Williams

Deep in the cellar of somewhere, secrets lurk.

Somewhere challenges perceptions of paradise and power in this gripping tale of longing and reckoning with the sins of our ancestors.

Lee Thompson, a recent college graduate, finds himself in rural Missouri, a place he never imagined calling home. However, despite its storybook charm-friendly neighbors, quaint shops, and lively festivals-the town guards macabre secrets that defy explanation.

Strange occurrences begin to haunt Lee, including mysterious movements in his apartment at night and visions of a hanging woman. Amidst a blossoming romance and an unexpected friendship with the charismatic local pastor, Lee uncovers a chilling truth: The town has a dark history steeped in slavery and cruelty. Now, a sinister force from the past threatens to ensnare Lee forever.
