When the injunction forced Cathedral's vast data empire into the light, Juno Hale thought the fight was over. She was wrong. The Ceiling Fan picks up in the uneasy calm after the Bright Day decree-when the silence that once hid corruption begins to hum again. In small Texas towns and forgotten county offices, a new pattern emerges. Public meetings turn selective, microphones demand loyalty, and a new "community" initiative called Cornerstone Civic promises to align the people with "prosperity." But when records start vanishing and citizens are told to wait for permission to speak, Juno and Teresa recognize Cathedral's fingerprints-just beneath a new name. From county courthouses to library basements, from whistleblowers to weary clerks with stamps and ledgers, The Ceiling Fan unfolds a quiet war between truth and control. What begins as a strange text-Still watching you-draws Juno into a maze of staged community programs, missing evidence, and a surveillance network disguised as civic order. Every document, every map, every "alignment" hides another layer of Cathedral's influence. As the investigation deepens, nothing stays local. The same names, logos, and coded memos appear in county after county. Lines blur between public service and private control. And when the map pin stops blinking and the fan above the meeting room starts to turn, Juno learns that some systems don't just watch-they listen, edit, and erase. Michael Singletary's second entry in the Bright Day Series is a taut, procedural thriller where bureaucracy becomes weapon and evidence becomes story. Blending investigative realism with the slow burn of small-town suspense, The Ceiling Fan explores how corruption hides in process, how ordinary people resist it, and what happens when communities reclaim their voice-one receipt, one record, one square stamp at a time. Fans of John Grisham, Margaret Atwood, and Greg Iles will be drawn into a world where law, data, and faith in the public record collide.
