In the shadowed hollows of Pippa Pass, the hills have rules; and the girls who break them don't come back.
For generations, the people of the Kentucky mountains have whispered the warnings: Don't whistle in the dark. Don't follow a loved one's voice echoing from the treeline. Never, ever go into the hills after sundown.
Sixteen-year-old, Eliza Murrell knows the rules by heart, but knowing them hasn't stopped the nightmare.
One by one, the girls of her family are vanishing into the mist-choked forest, leaving behind empty rooms and desperate families. The elders whisper of mountain spirits and ancient debts, but the truth feels far more personal and predatory.
As the woods creep closer and the calls from the dark grow louder and more familiar, Eliza realizes the forest isn't just taking girls; it's hunting them. And her name is next on the wind.
