She Returned, But Not Alone

A mother’s worst nightmare begins when her eight-year-old daughter vanishes into the depths of Blackwater Lake—only to return weeks later, silent, cold, and pregnant with something that should not exist. As the town of Maple Hollow closes ranks and ancient whispers resurface, the truth behind generations of missing men, haunted waters, and the forbidden Lake God Chapel comes crashing into the present. Secrets unravel, family bonds are tested, and the line between human and monster blurs as the mother races against the rising tide of superstition, betrayal, and supernatural revenge. In a town where the lakes keep their dead and every answer breeds a new horror, how far will a mother go to save her child—and what will she become to do it? When the fire rises and the curse breaks, who will survive the final reckoning in Maple Hollow?
