By: Ethan Blackwood

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In Briar Hollow, love isn’t just in the air—it’s on the menu.

Evan Hale thought a Valentine’s weekend at the Grand Lodge would be the perfect setting to propose to Sophie . He expected rustic charm, firelight, and a memory to last a lifetime. He didn't expect the heavy iron bands on the doors, the lines of salt on the thresholds, or the local "customs" that feel more like a siege.

When a historic blizzard seals the mountain pass, the town’s festive crimson lights take on a more sinister glow . Evan and Sophie soon realize the "Most Romantic Town in America" is a carefully constructed lure . The community has a century-old bargain with a gaunt, intelligent predator that haunts the timberline, and this year, the intended sacrifice has escaped .

As the power fails and a mimicry in the dark begins calling their names, Evan discovers his own family history is woven into the curse of the Hale Mine . In a town where outsiders are expendable, he and Sophie must use every ancient rule of iron and silver to survive the night .

The bargain is hungry. The trap is set. And the forest is never truly empty.
