An eviction notice, a failed career, and one last chance to salvage her life. Desperate journalist Audra Winslow accepts a strange assignment from an obscure magazine: travel to the isolated village of Zavolya, deep in the Carpathian Mountains, and investigate a 300-year-old witch trial. The pay is just enough to be a stay of execution.
But Zavolya is not welcoming. The air is heavy with an oppressive silence, and the villagers are bound by a suffocating fear. The innkeeper's warning is dire: bolt your door when the sun sets, and do not, under any circumstances, listen for the toll of the other bell.
Audra soon discovers she isn't just reporting on a historical event. The village is still in the grip of the legend of Varvara, the witch who was said to have sung a song of turning as she burned. An ancient power slumbers in the valley, and a terrifying annual ritual demands a sacrifice to keep it appeased.
As the long, frozen night descends, Audra realizes the horrifying truth. Her arrival was not a coincidence. She wasn't hired to be a journalist. She was chosen to be the offering.
