Meet Dana Whitlock—Michigan State Police, Quiet Death Unit. She tracks deaths that look “ordinary” until the numbers stop behaving. Stubborn, meticulous, and running on cold coffee and grit. If someone tried to bury the truth, Dana’s the one who digs it up. #AQuietDeath #DanaWhitlock

New here 👋 I’m Elliot Vale (pseud.), a Michigan-based thriller writer (and elementary teacher). Currently querying my debut A QUIET DEATH—Great Lakes winter, institutional secrets, and a detective chasing deaths staged to look “natural.” Excited to connect.
