BLACKTHORN For three hundred years, the town of Blackthorn has kept its secrets buried. Surrounded by a dying forest and a lake locals refuse to speak of, Blackthorn has always been a place where superstition runs deeper than truth. Everyone knows the story of the three witches who vanished three centuries ago. But no one knows what really happened that night. Until the clock in the center of town stops. The dead begin appearing where they shouldn't. The forest withers from the roots upward. And beneath the black waters of the lake, something ancient begins to stir. Ophelia, Raven, and Blair are cousins, bound by a bloodline that traces back to the three witches who once protected Blackthorn. As strange events pull them deeper into the town's forgotten history, they begin uncovering secrets their ancestors died to keep hidden. The witches didn't disappear by accident. And the curse placed over Blackthorn may not have been meant to destroy the town. It was meant to protect it. Because something has been trapped beneath the lake for three hundred years. And now, it's waking. The clock has stopped. The curse is breaking. And the three witches may be the only thing standing between Blackthorn and whatever waits beneath the water.
