\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A chilling debut gothic mystery in the vein of Jason Rekulak and Stacy Willingham about a house with dark secrets beneath its floorboards.<\/span><\/p>\n

It seems like divine intervention when newly pregnant and freshly unemployed Elinor unexpectedly inherits Wildwood, her family\u2019s estate. She convinces her husband to move to the sprawling wilderness of rural Vermont to make a home and raise their baby.<\/p>\n

Estranged from her extended family since childhood, Wildwood is a mystery to Elinor\u2014she\u2019s an outsider to the townsfolk and to the prominent Brook family who control the town and its history. Knowing little of the house or its past, save for snapshots of childhood memories, she becomes entranced by an eerie nineteenth-century mural in the primary bedroom she calls \u201cthe Forest of the Dead.\u201d<\/p>\n

But instead of growing more settled in her new home, Elinor feels increasingly isolated and uneasy. She begins to have dreams that feel like memories, phantasmagorical visions of something terrible that happened long ago. Haunted by the mystery of why her family fell apart, she\u2019s determined to uncover the secrets of her ancestry buried deep in the past and even deeper in the woods . . . secrets kept by powerful forces within the house and within the town.<\/p>\n

Obsessed with finding the truth, Elinor knows she must answer when \u201cthe Forest of the Dead\u201d calls her. Someone wants her to know they were there first, and someone else is trying to get in. As the nightmares creep into her waking hours, Elinor embarks on a journey that takes her back and forth in time, to the dark recesses of memories, to the streets of modern Salem, and to the haunted corners of this otherworldy house.<\/p>\n

The Forest of the Dead is calling. Can you hear the whispers?<\/p>\n
