Dr. Elowen Parrish has spent her life trusting reason.
A Salem psychiatrist with a sharp clinical mind and no patience for superstition, Elowen survives a violent car crash only to realize something came home with her. A shadow waits in the passenger seat. A presence corners her in the attic. A mirror turns her own face into a threat. And beneath the old house her mother left behind, she discovers a hidden chamber and a sealed well tied to a blood ritual buried deep in Salem's forgotten past.
The source of the nightmare is older than rumor.
More than two centuries earlier, a young woman named Abigail was sacrificed by a secret coven seeking to bind power to place. Instead, they created the Unquiet, a ravenous force born from blood, betrayal, and unfinished terror. Now it is awake again, feeding on grief, fear, and guilt, spreading through Elowen's life and into the town around her.
As the attacks grow stronger, Elowen is forced into an impossible alliance with Mateo Reyes, the paramedic who saw the same shadow at the crash scene, Vesper Hale, a guarded occult bookseller tied by ancestry to the original crime, and Nolan Hargrove, the skeptic doctor forced to watch reason fail in real time.
To stop the Unquiet, Elowen must uncover what her mother knew, confront the bloodline that binds her to the house, and descend into the well at the center of the horror before the thing below it turns Salem into a feeding ground.
The Unquiet is a gothic supernatural horror novel about inherited guilt, blood-bound evil, and the terrible intelligence of a haunting that does not want a house. It wants a bloodline.
