The Cottage Within: Psychological Horror Novel
The cottage can bring back the dead. It just needs someone living in return.
Eight months after her younger brother Liam drowns, tattoo artist Sarah Thorn is still trying to understand how to live without him.
Then she opens his DNA account.
The results show Liam was never her biological brother.
Another name appears in his matches. A woman Sarah has never heard of. And an unanswered message sent shortly before Liam died:
I think you might be my brother.
Searching through Liam's belongings leads Sarah to an old missing-person case, a handwritten journal, and the isolated Pennsylvania town of Vesper. Above its reservoir, hidden among the trees of Tanner's Ridge, stands a stone cottage that grieving people have been finding for more than a century.
The people of Vesper know what it can do.
They also know its price.
Enter with someone living. Leave alone.
Three nights later, the person you grieve most will walk out of the woods.
Whole.
Alive.
And exactly as you remember them.
As Sarah uncovers what her family has hidden for nearly thirty years, she realizes Liam had discovered the truth before his death.
And someone is willing to pay the cottage's price again.
Cottage Within is a dark, visceral folk-horror novel about grief, family, and the terrible things love can justify.
For readers who like unsettling supernatural horror, buried family secrets, isolated small towns, and horror that asks one question:
Whom would you sacrifice to bring back the person you love?
