Grant Halloway survived the war, but the peace he found in a secluded cabin was always fragile. When he meets Lydia Vesper, the silence finally feels like home instead of a haunting. For the first time since his squad was lost, the former Marine sees a future that doesn't involve looking over his shoulder. But Lydia is running from a darkness Grant can't see. She is the escaped prize of The Fold, a prehistoric cult that believes she is the vessel for an ancient, hungry deity. When they tear her from their home in a night of blood and omens, Grant's quiet life is incinerated. To save her, Grant must march into a shifting, gothic nightmare where the laws of physics bend and his own PTSD is weaponized against him. He isn't just fighting fanatical cultists; he is facing paranormal entities that feast on guilt. As the line between his traumatic memories and the cult’s rituals blurs, Grant must decide how much of his soul he is willing to sacrifice. In the heart of the woods, a choice awaits that no one—not even the gods—saw coming. Love is a sanctuary. The Fold is a cage. And the weight of what is left unsaid might be the deadliest burden of all.
