About Falcon Hollow
What sets Falcon Hollow apart is that it doesn’t treat the town as a setting—it treats it as something that functions. The mysteries follow real investigations, with all the delays, limits, and pressures that come with them, while a parallel “Archive” lens captures how the town reflects on its own history. Through its newspaper, institutions, and interconnected stories, Falcon Hollow continues to exist beyond any single case, allowing readers to experience not just the crime, but the place it happens in—and the way it changes over time.

D. Patrick Dillon is the creator of Falcon Hollow, a fictional Maryland town that serves as the setting for a series of crime novels and novellas. His work focuses on the rhythm of a small community, where investigations unfold alongside the everyday lives of the people involved. Beyond the novels, Falcon Hollow continues to take shape through the Falcon Hollow Gazette, an in-world publication that explores the town’s history, culture, and quieter stories. Each piece contributes to a larger picture, where the setting is as central as the cases themselves.
