Madwood

By Elias D. Thorn

Book Overview

A Novel

Based on True Events

Some secrets aren't meant to stay hidden.

Some can get you killed.

When a suspicious life insurance claim leads a burned-out investigator to a care facility run by a woman who deliberately disguises herself as elderly-yet remains hauntingly beautiful-he uncovers a trail of perfectly timed deaths, vanished tenants, and a sentient tree that demands human sacrifice in exchange for resurrection.

Madwood is a supernatural suspense novel blending psychological horror and insurance fraud that spirals toward a deeper truth about identity, belief and the price of survival.

A dark new religion is coming-and it has roots.

A gripping mystery of trust, betrayal, and the price of mental illness. Based on a merging of actual events.
