As people go missing in the sleepy town of Smith’s Hollow, the only clue to their fate comes when a teenager begins to have terrifying visions, in a macabre horror novel by a semi-author National runner Christina Henry.
When the two girls’ bodies were found torn apart in the town of Smiths Hollow, Lauren was surprised but also hoped that the police would not find the killer. After all, last year, her father’s body was found with her heart missing, and since then people have moved on. Even her best friend, Miranda, has become more interested in the boys than spending time at the spooky old tree, as they used to do as children.
So when Lauren saw a monster dragging the rest of the girls in the woods, she knew there was nothing she could do. Unlike the rest of her town. But as she gets closer to the answer, she realizes that the foundation of her seemingly ordinary town may be rotting in the center. And that if no one else represents the missing person, she will.
Creating a world and a story that sucks you in and never lets go, Christina Henry always writes books that are magical; dark, dangerous and so addicting.
