Blood Moon: The Hidden Howl

Walton Creek, a snow-covered town tucked between the mountains of upstate New York, has always looked picture-perfect from the outside. But beneath the frozen streets and quiet campus of Walton University, something ancient stirs.

For Matt Bernard, college is supposed to be simple-classes, soccer, and late-night pizza runs with his best friend Isaac Hughes and their endlessly organized study partner Olivia Walker. Then the howls start. Students begin to vanish. And something in the woods starts watching them back.

As Matt's senses sharpen and his nights blur into something darker, he realizes the legends whispered around Walton Creek may not be legends at all. Alongside Isaac, Olivia, and mysterious new transfer Alissa Veyra, Matt must uncover what's haunting their town before it claims them next. And when Luke Avery, their teammate, reveals he knows exactly what Matt has become, the truth becomes impossible to ignore.

Blood Moon: The Hidden Howl is a supernatural coming-of-age mystery filled with friendship, slow-burn tension, humor sharp enough to cut through fear, and secrets buried under a town that was never as quiet as it seemed.
