Hemlock Island: A Novel By Kelley Armstrong
Hemlock Island, once a refuge, now becomes a nightmarish playground for secrets and horrors in Kelley Armstrong's chilling standalone novel. Laney Kilpatrick, desperate to hold onto her piece of solace amidst the ruins of her life, rents out her vacation home, only to find herself thrust into a sinister game of survival.
The invasion of privacy transforms into a macabre tableau as the house witnesses escalating terrors—from broken belongings to hex circles. When terrified renters abandon the place, Laney, accompanied by her teenage niece, delves into the heart of the mystery. Unbeknownst to her, her ex-husband Kit and former friends, Jayla and Sadie, are drawn into the web of fear as well.
Whispers in the woods heighten tensions, and the revelation of a hand clawing its way from the earth sets the stage for an unthinkable discovery—a lifeless body. Trapped on the island with a malevolent force, the group realizes that their only means of escape has vanished.
As trust unravels and the island's dark secrets come to light, they must confront not only the horrors lurking in the shadows but also the sinister truth that binds them all. Hemlock Island becomes a crucible of terror, where survival demands facing the demons within as much as those that seek to devour them from the shadows. 📚❤️
