The Daughters of Fourmile Ridge
For more than a century, the people of Bell County have whispered about Fourmile Ridge.
They speak of little girls who vanish without a trace. Of a wasting sickness that returns every twenty-five years. Of strange lights moving through the trees and pale women with storm-gray eyes who watch from the darkness. Most dismiss the stories as Appalachian folklore. Emma Whitaker doesn't. After inheriting her grandmother's journals, Emma begins searching for the truth behind a mystery that has haunted generations of mountain families. What begins as a journey through forgotten history soon uncovers a terrifying pattern stretching back to 1901, when a woman named Hester Blackroot was hanged for witchcraft. As the fifth cycle begins, children disappear, families flee, and an ancient force beneath Fourmile Ridge stirs once again. The daughters of Hester no longer remain hidden in the forest. They have learned new ways to find those they seek, and nowhere feels safe. With time running out and her own family caught in the curse, Emma must confront a horrifying truth: Some legends are not born from monsters. Some monsters create the legends. And beneath Fourmile Ridge, something far older than Hester has been waiting... ...hungry... ...for someone to come home.
