The Tree of Life

Camilla wants only one thing: to be left alone. She keeps her head down, cares for her fading grandfather, and hides from a village that sees her as strange and fragile. Her only refuge is an ancient oak she whispers her secrets to.

But oaks don't answer back.
Until hers does.

When Camilla says yes to the voice in her dreams, she unleashes Wood: a cursed being bound in bark and rot. Everywhere Wood walks, life withers... except when Camilla is near. Somehow, she alone can stop the curse.

Now Camilla is caught between a dangerous bond and a hunger centuries deep. The more she resists, the closer Wood presses and the more the forest itself seems to tighten around them. But with villagers whispering of witchcraft, a charming noble crossing her path, and an ancient curse that refuses to sleep, Camilla must decide whether Wood is her doom... or her destiny.
