Beyond the veil, the Hollow Dead wait, tormented by a hunger to replace the souls they’ve lost.

The last thing anxious teenager Katie Fielding needs is more problems. As if her only friend Becky Summers moving away wasn’t enough, now she’s suspended from school for a fight she didn’t even start.

While waiting for Becky near a lake in the woods, Katie sees an eerie green light over the water and hears cries for help.

But on her way to help, she is suddenly dragged beneath the surface.

Katie emerges in a nightmarish forest obscured by fog. The trees all bear human features and are stalked by pale, faceless monsters. Desperate for a way home, she forms an alliance with an ancient, deformed creature who warns her that things worse than the dead will be drawn to her soul.

Katie will confront horrors from both beyond and within in a fight to overcome evil and survive in this harrowing horror novel from Sam Drake.
