Ghosts of State Road 13

By Drew Wohlford

In the decaying heart of Appalachia, where the Hocking River swallows secrets and the mines breathe poison, a fractured past waits to drag Travis Holden under. Losing his parents and acting out against the town and the spinster women who took him in, Dainla, sharp as a rusted blade, and Celia, wild as a moth's wing-who guard a town steeped in rot.

But the ghosts here don't linger in shadows. They whisper through silt-clogged harmonicas, coil in the smoke of burned letters, and rise from the river's black depths with the names of the drowned. As Travis digs into the soil of his mother's grave, he unearths more than bones: a web of lies, a sister he never knew, and a curse that binds the living to the dead.

Now the mines stir, the river hungers, and the twins' secrets threaten to bury him alive. In Rendville, the truth isn't just dangerous-it's alive.

How deep will you dig?

Ghosts of State Road 13-where every secret has a grave, and the dead won't stay silent.
