There's a place just outside of Ashridge where four roads meet, surrounded by dying oaks draped in Spanish moss. Locals call it the Whispering Crossroads, and no one goes there after dark-not since the summer of 1967, when three children vanished and a fourth came back... changed.

In the secluded village of Fernhaven, a foreboding forest looms at the edge of town. The villagers whisper of an ancient curse, claiming the trees have voices that call out to the young, luring them into the darkness. For years, the stories have remained legends-until children start disappearing. When her younger brother vanishes without a trace, 16-year-old Ivy Marlow refuses to believe he's lost forever. Armed with her courage and her brother's favorite charm, she ventures into the cursed woods. What she finds defies all logic-a hidden realm of twisted, sentient trees and ethereal creatures, where time flows unnaturally and the whispers grow louder. Ivy discovers that the forest is ruled by a vengeful spirit, bound by a centuries-old betrayal that has trapped it-and the missing children-within its domain. To save her brother, Ivy must navigate the woods' illusions, solve the riddle of the spirit's curse, and confront her own connection to the forest's dark past. But the deeper Ivy goes, the more she realizes: the woods don't just want her brother. They want her.
