A Withering Betrayal

By Dea Nigrinis

When 10-year-old Sarah moves to a crumbling old house across from a graveyard in a ghost-like town, she feels like her world is falling apart. She's left her three best friends behind, her new home is barely standing, and her mom's sharp words make every day harder to bear. Even worse, her dad never stands up for her, acting like everything is okay when it's anything other than fine.

But the moment Sarah steps into that eerie graveyard, things get even stranger. She begins experiencing visions-flashes of a teenage girl, a burning house, and whispers of a hidden past. The nightmares come next, pulling Sarah into vivid, terrifying dreams that feel all too real.

As Sarah starts to piece together the mysteries of her new home, she realizes there may be secrets darker than the shadows in the graveyard. The more she uncovers, the more Sarah questions everything she thought she knew-about the home, her family, and herself.

A Withering Betrayal is a spooky and suspenseful thriller that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. Perfect for fans of eerie adventures and stories about courage, family, and uncovering the truth, A Withering Betrayal reminds us that sometimes the scariest thing isn't what's lurking in the dark-it's what's hiding in plain sight.
