Dr. Nia Wallace has built her career on untangling the secrets hidden in DNA, but nothing has prepared her for the mystery her own genes are about to reveal. When a new ancestry app connects her to a sibling she never knew existed, Nia is drawn to the remote Louisiana town of Darbonne, a place steeped in history-and secrets.
The town is almost too perfect: the people are welcoming, the streets are idyllic, and the community seems to thrive in isolation. But beneath the surface, Nia senses something is off. Faces look too familiar, questions are met with vague answers, and the deeper she digs into her connection to Darbonne, the more the town tightens its grip.
As Nia's search for answers leads her into the heart of the town's origins, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself, her family, and the price of progress. Darbonne's past isn't just haunting-it's alive. And leaving may not be an option.
Anywhere But Here is a psychological thriller that explores identity, the legacy of oppression, and the boundaries of scientific ethics. Perfect for readers who enjoy slow-burn suspense and richly woven mysteries, this is a story that asks: how far would you go to uncover the truth, and what would it cost to escape it?
Now includes a Book Club Discussion Guide in the back of both the paperback and hardcover editions! Perfect for readers who love dissecting dark secrets, complex identities, and ethical gray areas. Ideal for book clubs, classroom analysis, or late-night page-turning debates.Dr. Nia Wallace has built her career on untangling the secrets hidden in DNA, but nothing has prepared her for the mystery her own genes are about to reveal.
