Some warnings come with wings.
When Sarah Caldwell returns to Point Pleasant to settle her late father's affairs, she expects dust, paperwork, and too many ghosts of memory. What she finds instead is a town caught in the undertow of something older-something watching from the river and whispering through the power lines.
As bridges tremble and strange red eyes glint from the fog, Sarah is drawn into the tangled grief of a place that refuses to forget. A librarian with secrets, a boy who films what he shouldn't, and a winged omen that may not be a monster at all-the closer she looks, the thinner the line between legend and warning becomes.
Inspired by the true events surrounding the 1967 collapse of the Silver Bridge, The Mothman's Warning blends Appalachian gothic, literary horror, and folklore realism into a haunting exploration of memory, belief, and the stories we carry across generations.
This atmospheric novel asks one question:
If the dead tried to warn us, would we listen?
