Others are protected at any cost.
The explosive continuation of the Herman Ingram series.
When a simple favor leads journalist Herman Ingram to a secluded estate outside Raleigh, he expects another dead end.
What he finds instead is something far worse.
Holden Manor isn’t just a private residence.
It’s a meeting place for the powerful.
And something is happening behind its walls.
After a violent encounter forces Herman to run, it becomes clear he’s stumbled onto something bigger than anything he’s faced before. The people involved aren’t just hiding secrets—they’re protecting them.
With help from a group of mysterious vigilantes, Herman begins to pull at threads that powerful figures have spent years burying.
But the deeper he digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes.
Because this time, the people he’s up against aren’t just willing to silence him.
They’re willing to destroy everything he has left.
And they’re already closing in.
The Devil’s Backyard is a fast-paced conspiracy thriller perfect for fans of Willow Rose and Karin Slaughter—where uncovering the truth means stepping into a world that doesn’t let people walk away.
Jeb Bohn is an award-winning author of dark fiction, suspense, and thrillers.
His passion for storytelling began early, scribbling short books for his mom. Though adulthood shifted his focus to other pursuits, Jeb never lost the urge to create, occasionally crafting short stories for himself without any intention of sharing them publicly.
That changed in 2014 with The Last Cigarette, a story that reignited his drive to publish. While balancing a day job and family life, the pull to write continued to grow stronger.
In late 2017, during a difficult period of mental health struggles, Jeb experienced vivid, haunting dreams. One such dream—waking up alone in a vast hospital, stepping into chaos beyond its walls—became the inspiration for his novel Kill The Messenger.
Today, Jeb focuses on creating immersive, character-driven stories that explore the bizarre, the macabre, and the deeply human. He believes that no matter how strange a plot may become, it’s strong, well-written characters who anchor a story and bring it to life.
Beyond writing, Jeb is a proud father, a drummer, and a passionate fan of music and hockey.
