Ditchline Country

What these books are.

A real investigation

Records, gates and fence lines, not car chases. A slow burn that rewards paying attention.

Rural Michigan

Homestead life, sheep, small-town loyalty, and a river everyone depends on.

Small-town dark

Midwest gothic atmosphere with a grounded answer at the end.

The author

Zac Devitt.

Zac Devitt grew up in Downriver Detroit and now lives on forty acres in rural southern Mid-Michigan with his wife, pets, and livestock, including his hives of bees. Ditchline Country is the first book in his series of the same name.
