English | 2025 | Mystery & Thriller
In a deadly rite of ascension, sometimes the only way out is through.
Conifer College and its town are gripped by terror. A series of gruesome murders— bodies found with their hearts missing surrounded by bloody occult symbols—points to a coven of witches practicing dark rituals. Willow Grace and FBI Agent Paxton Holt are thrust into the heart of the investigation. Every step draws them closer to the occult underworld. As the sinister truth emerges, Willow must confront her own shadowy past, a life she thought she’d left behind.
But the Recruiter, a figure as enigmatic as he is dangerous, knows more about Willow’s history than she’s willing to admit. As she battles the demons of her past, her bond with Holt begins to shift. Their relationship deepens just as Holt faces his own fears—his niece’s move to Alaska and the unspoken question of where things are headed with Willow.
With every clue, the stakes rise. As the body count grows, Willow is forced to decide just how far she’ll go to protect those she loves, even if it means confronting the terrifying possibility that the danger may lie closer than she ever imagined.
