Description

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but they can also kill you…

A mutilated and delirious man emerges from a Surrey woodland in the middle of the night and collapses inside Haslemere Hospital. When surgeons get him on the operating table, what they discover leaves DI Stephanie Broadbent speechless.

Still reeling from the loss of their colleague, Stephanie must pull her fractured team together and lead them into a case threaded with strange sightings and whispers of folklore that refuse to stay buried.

Because whatever happened in those trees feels like the first step in a much darker path.

And something in the hills is stirring.
