Raven’s Peak was never truly safe. For years, the town had buried its past, whispering about the horrors that once stalked its streets. But when bodies begin washing up at the river’s edge—lifeless, drained of blood—Aria, the town’s only nurse, knows the nightmare has returned. And somehow, she is at the center of it. With a gift she barely understands and a past shrouded in mystery, Aria is drawn into a dangerous alliance with Kael, a ruthless vampire hunter with secrets of his own. He claims to be hunting something far worse than the creatures she fears—something ancient, something that has been waiting. As the attacks grow bloodier and long-forgotten truths begin to surface, Aria realizes that the key to stopping the darkness might lie within herself. But to uncover the truth, she must face the one thing she has feared all her life. Because in Raven’s Peak, monsters aren’t just hiding in the shadows. Sometimes, they’re buried in your own blood.
