CRIME UNKNOWN (A Buck Taylor Novel)

A Death in the Mountains. A Truth That Could Burn It All Down.

In the shadow of Colorado’s towering peaks lies Copper Creek—a picturesque mountain town hiding a century of secrets. When a young Black college student is discovered hanged in a campus basement, local police rush to call it suicide. His devastated parents refuse to accept the official story, and the Colorado Bureau of Investigation sends Agent Buck Taylor to uncover what really happened.

What begins as a routine inquiry becomes a high‑stakes investigative thriller as Buck and his team confront hostile authorities, buried racial tensions, and a community desperate to protect its past. Every clue pulls them deeper into a web of lies stretching back generations—one that powerful people will do anything to keep hidden.

With pressure mounting from the governor, national attention closing in, and the threat of civil unrest rising, Buck must choose:

Expose the truth and risk tearing Copper Creek apart—or let the lies stand and watch justice die.

Perfect for fans of crime thrillers with social depth, investigative mysteries, and character‑driven suspense, Crime Unknown delivers a gripping, emotionally charged story that lingers long after the final page.
