Ten years after the mysterious disappearance of her brother, Luca, Marta returns to the village she desperately tried to forget. Haunted by nightmares and a crippling sense of guilt, she finds herself in a place where time has stood still and fear is a tangible veil. The forest, a witness to ancient tragedies, hides a primordial secret and a waiting shadow. Amidst buried truths and unspoken glances, Marta must face the demons of the past to uncover Luca's fate and, perhaps, free Blackwood Creek from an ancient curse. But the forest never returns what it takes, and Marta might be next.
