Summary

A beautiful forest. A terrifying legend.

It’s 1986. Two strangers, hundreds of miles apart, grapple with disturbing incidents in a one-of-a-kind quaking aspen forest.

Knox is a new Forest Service ranger assigned to a vast, remote territory in Utah.

Sandy is a producer fighting for her place in a tough TV newsroom.

Both have heard about the shadowy figure believed to menace visitors to the forest. When a man disappears and reports of the Root Witch begin coming in, Knox and Sandy are plunged into a living nightmare.

Their lives converge on Halloween. Sandy sends a news crew to investigate the sightings. But when the team goes missing and a shocking video surfaces revealing the ghastly truth, Knox and Sandy face the biggest decision of their lives.

This novel is based on a short story, The Root Witch: An Urban Legend Caught on Tape."

Content warning: Animal death, anxiety, and profanity.

slow creepy burn

a creepy slow burn. easy to get through and I enjoyed the story. characters were built so well. I would have loved to have gone into depth more with the story behind the root witch and have a bit more of a scare. otherwise, an enjoyable story.

Truth

Loved the narration of Jennifer Pickens, who brings out the suspense, pace thrills

What happens, when a TV producer and a ranger, go out to see if the Root Witch just an urban legend or real. This is a fast paced and genuinely spine chilling story.
