About The Book:

Cook Forest in autumn is breathtaking. Crimson, copper, and gold blaze across the trees. Towering conifers and ancient hemlocks stretch toward the sky, majestic and watchful. Visitors come for the quiet escape, to feel calm, find peace, and leave the chaos of everyday life behind.

But beauty can be deceiving.

In November 2023, two friends entered the forest. Only one made it out alive.

As locals begin to piece together what happened, the mystery unravels. They uncover something darker, deeper, and far more sinister than anyone imagined. The forest saw everything. And when the moment was right, it offered a truth that changed everything.

What really happened that night?

Reviews:

Great! Appreciate a good mystery and my family camps at Cook Forest every summer. Perfect combination. Author clearly has a good idea of the park. I got a kick out of the local references. Wonder if the place she describes really exists in Cook Forest? I’ll be looking for it!

As a TV writer, the characters blew me away, super complex and well-developed, like something you’d expect from a whole writing team. Really impressive work.

This book grabbed me from page one! The descriptions of the landscape and characters are very detailed. The story is so intriguing and it’s packed with unexpected twists.
