The Search Party
A small-town officer searching for a missing student finds himself dredging up everything he's been trying to bury.
Some searches lead somewhere else.
Officer Andrew Foster has seen his share of troubled souls, but when a young college student goes missing in Harper's Crossing, something about this case gnaws at him. The town's quiet, its secrets buried beneath layers of time and mist — but Andrew can't shake the feeling that the river knows more than it lets on.
Haunted by the death of his brother, Andrew struggles with the weight of his own regrets. As he delves deeper into the disappearance, the search becomes less about finding the missing boy and more about confronting the parts of himself he's tried to bury.
The river, cold and unyielding, mirrors his search for redemption — a force that both beckons and warns.
A gripping mystery that unfolds alongside an emotional journey into guilt, obsession, and the shadowy depths of the past.
A disappearance. A river. A man carrying too much.
The Search Party is as interested in the person doing the searching as the person who has disappeared — a story about grief, guilt, obsession and the things that refuse to stay buried.
