Publisher's Synopsis
Tangled in the Shadows: The Complete Trilogy
By Clifton Terrell
Every secret comes with a price. And in this town, nobody leaves broke.
Beneath the stained-glass windows and Sunday best of Baton Rouge lies a twisted web of lust, lies, and legacy. Malik Sanders, the gifted church organist and son of a powerful pastor, never asked to inherit a kingdom built on blood. But when his mother dies under suspicious circumstances, Malik digs up more than just grief-he unearths a scandal that threatens to burn down everything the church was built on.
This trilogy includes:
- Volume 1 - Hallelujah and Hennessy
A viral sermon meltdown, a mysterious new choir member, and a secret map hidden behind Malik's closet door set the stage for a reckoning long overdue.
- Volume 2 - The Reckoning
Old sins resurface, and hidden files expose generations of abuse, cover-ups, and betrayal. Malik isn't the only one seeking truth-but not everyone wants it revealed.
- Volume 3 - The Fire Next Time
As the pulpit crumbles and the saints start screaming, Malik must choose: expose the final secret, or protect the shadows that made him.
Steamy, Southern, and unflinchingly bold, Tangled in the Shadows is a queer gothic saga of family, faith, forbidden love, and revenge. If you like messy drama, morally gray characters, and twists that cut deep, this one's for you.
