Be careful of the dark, dark wood . . .
Especially the woods surrounding the town of Fir Haven. Some say these woods are magical. Haunted, even.
Rumored to be a witch, only Nora Walker knows the truth. She and the Walker women before her have always shared a special connection with the woods. And itβs this special connection that leads Nora to Oliver Huntsmanβthe same boy who disappeared from the Camp for Wayward Boys weeks agoβand in the middle of the worst snowstorm in years. He should be dead, but here he is alive, and left in the woods with no memory of the time heβd been missing.
But Nora can feel an uneasy shift in the woods at Oliverβs presence. And itβs not too long after that Nora realizes she has no choice but to unearth the truth behind how the boy she has come to care so deeply about survived his time in the forest, and what led him there in the first place. What Nora doesnβt know, though, is that Oliver has secrets of his ownβsecrets heβll do anything to keep buried, because as it turns out, he wasnβt the only one to have gone missing on that fateful night all those weeks ago.
