Rattle, rattle in the dark…
The mountain’s bones seek out a heart.
Jane has not spoken to her brother Thomas since the accident that nearly killed them both. Their drive from college through the North Georgia mountains is uncomfortably silent, until they stop at a roadside convenience store, where a man stumbles in with a mutilated body, claiming to have been attacked by a monster.
At first, no one believes the man’s ravings, but when the next person to leave the store is brutally killed, they fear that local legend might be true:
There’s a beast in these mountains who feasts on guilty hearts… and someone among them has lured it out of hiding.
Jane and Thomas each harbor secrets, but so do the other patrons, and as the monster claims more hearts, the survivors turn on each other, desperate to save themselves by uncovering the guiltiest among them.
If the siblings can’t overcome the rift between them, they’ll surely become the monster’s next victims…or worse, become monsters themselves.

Critic reviews
"When the night knocks, don't ask who's there. Set deep in the Appalachian Mountains, this very scary story has the isolating atmosphere of a classic horror tale. I couldn't put it down." —Nick Medina, author of Savage Lake
"Daniel is a writer to keep a very close (and possibly nervous) eye on for future horrors."—Michael Wehunt, author of Nightjars, in CrimeReads
"This debut novel is a must-read for horror fans." —Booklist (starred review)
"If you love Grady Hendrix and Rachel Harrison, Daniel’s debut novel is going to be a must-read. It captures the same ability to bring heart to the horror." —Parade
"Daniel's debut novel is a heart-racing horror-thriller that's easy to recommend to casual horror readers. The interesting ensemble cast and familiar-with-a-twist tropes make for a quick and satisfying read." —Library Journal
"When the Night Comes Knocking is in the vein of Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Stephen Graham Jones: a decidedly post-pandemic novel that explores the conflicts that arise when people can’t agree on what’s real and what’s not, as well as how they might come back together."—ArtsATL
