About this listen

When the mist rolls in, the woods come alive.

Gailsbrook was a quiet town — until the creatures came. First they took livestock. Then they took people. Sheriff Eli Mercer has seen bad years, but nothing like this. Something is hunting his town, something older than the trees themselves.

The answer lies in the town’s darkest secret — a bargain struck generations ago with the forest’s ancient ruler, the Forgotten King. And when the pact is broken, the price must be paid.

Sadie Kellerman never believed the stories about the woods. But when the townspeople betray her and drag her screaming into the trees, she learns the truth: it is her blood the King wants. Her blood that can save them.

But the King doesn’t kill her.

He keeps her.

Cursed, collared, and bound to the forest, Sadie becomes the unwilling bride of the Forgotten King — trapped between terror and something darker that draws her closer to him every night. And as Gailsbrook falls to ruin behind her, Sadie swears she will find a way to escape…

…and when she does, the town will burn.
