The Hollow Pines

By B.H. Crane

Mara Whitlock knows she has to leave.
With five-month-old Oliver in the backseat and a life she can no longer endure disappearing behind her, she drives into the night with no real destination-only the desperate need to put as much distance as possible between herself and the man she once loved.
Then a violent storm sends her off the road in Blackwater Pass.
Stranded deep in the mountains with no signal, dwindling supplies, and an infant depending entirely on her, Mara has no choice but to keep moving. But the deeper she ventures into the Hollow Pines, the more she realizes she may not be alone.
Something watches from between the trees.
Voices call to her from places no one should be.
Memories begin bleeding into reality.
And the forest seems to know exactly what Mara is afraid of.
With every step, the line between survival and nightmare grows thinner. To get Oliver home, Mara will have to navigate a wilderness that doesn't simply want her lost-it wants her to question everything she knows.
The Hollow Pines is a dark psychological survival horror novel about motherhood, trauma, and the terrifying lengths one woman will go to protect her child.
