Sometimes it's better to stay silent. Say nothing to no one. Say nothing at all.
Elsie hasn't said a word in over six years- not that anyone has noticed, of course. The sarcastic comments and harsh words were thought to be a way of rebelling, but no one could see what they really were. Her mask.
The only place Elsie is able to be herself is working at the Magpie Bakery. Her safe haven, the nest she will never leave.
Alex is far from silent. Driven by the grind of tools and the burning heat of the forge, his life is one adventure he is glad to be on. He doesn't expect the trip he is forced to go on to his Gran's to be anything but ordinary.
But all it takes is one day, one stranger and one envelope for the walls they have built up to be threatened and a whole new adventure begins.

The Phantom of the Woods
In the quiet, superstitious town of Hollow's End, whispers circulate about a boy who lives deep in the woods-a boy cursed with half the face of a skeleton, feared by all who dare to speak his name. The townspeople warn that the forest is haunted, urging everyone to stay far from its shadowy borders. Lily, a daring 19-year-old who has never believed in old tales, sneaks into the woods one night, driven by her unshakable curiosity. There, she meets Kael, a mysterious and brooding figure whose life has been marred by a curse that forced him into isolation. Kael, now 23, lives alone in a secluded cabin, hiding behind a mask that conceals the skeletal half of his face. To his surprise, Lily isn't frightened by his appearance-she sees past the curse to the man he truly is. As the two grow closer, their bond begins to challenge the very beliefs that have kept Kael isolated for years. But the curse that haunts Kael runs deeper than anyone in the town knows. As Lily delves into the mystery of what really happened to Kael, she discovers that the curse isn't just about his appearance-it's tied to a dark secret that could destroy them both. In The Phantom of the Woods, Lily and Kael must face the unknown together, unearthing the truth behind the curse and testing whether love can break through the barriers of fear and isolation. Their journey leads them into the heart of the forest's darkness, where secrets, danger, and the very essence of Kael's humanity are at stake.Complete
