About this listen
The Locks
by Harper Stanwick, Sr. is a mystery and psychological fiction set in the declining river town of Hatch during the late 19th century. The Locks unfolds in the shadowy and forlorn town of Hatch, a place where darkness pervades both the streets and the lives of its weary inhabitants. When the enigmatic Alvin Stark arrives and takes residence in the eerie mansion known as The Locks, he brings with him an air of mystery that stirs the stagnant waters of Hatch. Set against the backdrop of Hatch's economic decline and overshadowed by the thriving Ben's City downstreamStark's arrival sparks curiosity and suspicion among the townsfolk. The town's practical merchant, Thompson Benton, and the lazy yet cunning Norman Stevens are among those drawn into Stark's enigmatic presence. As Stark settles into his new home, he forms a bond with the beautiful and talented Annie Benton, whose music provides solace and connection in the isolated mansion.
However, the peace Stark finds is threatened by the arrival of a shadowy figure from his past, forcing him to confront hidden secrets and unresolved conflicts. With the town's deep-seated dissatisfaction bubbling to the surface, Stark's journey through deceit, betrayal, and redemption leads to a transformative change for both him and Hatch.
Delve into the atmospheric world of The Locks, where the past intertwines with the present, and the future of a town and its people hangs in the balance.
Perfect for fans of gothic mysteries and psychological fiction, Harper Stanwick, Sr.'s novel will captivate readers with its richly drawn characters and hauntingly beautiful prose.
