Hollow Folk drops readers into the rural Ozarks for four books of dark, atmospheric mystery. Mr. Big Empty (2017) establishes the isolated setting, and All the Inside Howling, The Dust Feast, and The Mortal Sleep follow with investigations that draw on the region’s remoteness and the secrets it hides.

The series has a different feel from Ashe’s urban detective fiction, trading the procedural structure for something more gothic and unsettling. The Ozarks setting is almost a character in itself, shaping the crimes and the people caught up in them.
