Behind the brass gates of Orchard Grove, the manicured lawns and sprawling estates conceal a darkness that even the California sun can't bleach away.
High school senior Elliot Gray knows better than to trust the town's picture-perfect veneer; his trauma is a daily reminder. But when the arrival of a mysterious woman sets off a chain of disturbing events, Elliot senses a fresh hell descending upon him. With each nightfall, a creeping, watchful star seems to draw closer, determined to unearth Orchard Grove's long-buried secrets and resurrect the horrors of Elliot's own tragic past.
ABOUT CONNOR
As an autodidact with an insatiable appetite for the macabre, Connor Metcalf brings an unconventional perspective to the gothic horror genre. His love of twisted tales, from Mikhail Bulgakov to Gillian Flynn, compelled him to forgo traditional education and instead immerse himself in literary masters—his professors between pages. These authors fuel his creativity, allowing him to craft intricately disturbing worlds for readers to get lost in.
