Wildwood A Novel Ashley Woo Paperback Fiction/Occult & Supernatural For fans of Jason Rekulak and Flynn Berry, a chilling debut gothic mystery about a house with secrets beneath its floorboards. After unexpectedly inheriting her family estate, Wildwood, Elinor, newly pregnant and freshly unemployed, convinces her husband to move to the sprawling wilderness of rural Vermont. Having been estranged from her extended family since childhood, Wildwood is a mystery to Elinor—she’s an outsider to the townsfolk and to the prominent Brooks Family who control the town and its history. Elinor becomes entranced by an eerie 19th century mural in the primary bedroom of the manor, a mural which she calls “the Forest of the Dead”. Unsettled and isolated, Elinor begins to have dreams, ones that feel like memories, of something terrible that happened long ago. Desperate to understand why her family fell apart, Elinor is haunted by the secrets of her own ancestry buried deep in the past and even deeper in the woods… Secrets kept by powerful forces within the house and within the town. Obsessed with finding the truth, Elinor knows she must answer when the Forest of the Dead comes calling. Someone wants her to know they were here first, and someone is trying to get in. Her nightmares creep into her waking hours and Elinor embarks on a journey that takes her back in history, to the dark recesses of memories, to the streets of modern Salem and to the haunted corners of the property. The Forest of the Dead is calling. Can you hear the whispers?
