For everyone who would choose the bear.
Delilah S. Dawson should teach a masterclass in writing revenge stories.
Set at an artists retreat at an old hotel in the woods, Sarah has fled her abusive ex and just wants a fresh start where she finds herself in her pottery again after years of torment. Unfortunately, what she finds is corpses and nightmares and maybe some ghosts, as well as deeply buried secrets of horrible men and the things they did to the women who dared to defy them.
This book is full of rage and heartbreak, terror and revenge.
If you’re stuck in the woods, would you rather come face to face with a man or a bear? Always choose the bear.
