The Whispering Woods

By George McMurty

Some places are better left lost...

When Jake and his friends take a weekend trip to the remote mountain town of Blackthorn Valley, they expect quaint cabins, quiet trails, and maybe a few ghost stories. What they find instead is a place smothered in silence, wrapped in warnings the locals refuse to explain, and surrounded by a forest that seems to watch every step they take.

The Whispering Woods aren't on any tourist map, but they are on the lips of every missing person rumor for miles around. Voices in the trees call to each of them in ways they can't ignore. Shadows don't always follow the rules of light. Strange symbols mark the trees like a boundary... and they've already crossed it.

When one of their own vanishes without a trace, the weekend getaway becomes a desperate fight to get out alive. But in a forest that bends time, twists paths, and knows their names, leaving might not be an option.

The Whispering Woods is a tense, atmospheric supernatural horror novel perfect for fans of Blair Witch Project, The Ritual, and Something Wicked This Way Comes.
