The Circle in the Woods
In a small town bordered by familiar woods, nothing ever truly goes wrong. People live where they've always lived. Streets lead where they always have. And when someone disappears, the town learns-gently, collectively-not to ask too many questions.
When a reckless bet draws three friends to a strange stone circle hidden among the trees, something long-maintained begins to fail. One of them returns changed. One of them does not. And one of them refuses to forget.
As old rules surface and records begin to contradict themselves, the town is forced to confront the quiet system it has relied on for generations-a system designed not to protect people, but to keep everything orderly. Because some places do not want to be understood. They want to be maintained.
The Circle in the Woods is a slow-burning work of literary horror about memory, complicity, and the cost of keeping things the same. It asks what happens when a place that has always decided for you is finally made to let go-and whether a community can survive without the comfort of forgetting.
