The Moss

Synopsis

A girl returns to her hometown and the sinister bogland surrounding it in search of her missing sister in this harrowing, atmospheric young adult horror perfect for fans of Shea Ernshaw and The Haunting of Hill House.I know how to find her. Don&’t follow me. I mean it. It will break Dad if you do. I love you, Em. P.S. Stay away from the Sedge Man. He won&’t stop, like a hunter, until there&’s nothing left of you. A year after her sister Eve&’s sudden disappearance, Emma returns to the small town of Scarrow in northern Maine. The police have no leads, the neighbors spread rumors about her father&’s involvement, and the vast bogland known as the Moss lies in wait beside the house like a hungry beast. Darkly familiar shadows and specters fill her dreams and the quiet spaces between her thoughts. Something is following her, pulling her to the Moss, and it&’s growing stronger by the day. Could it be what called to her sister? Or even to their mother, when Emma was only a child? Haunted by the ghosts of the past, Emma knows she is the only one who can uncover the truth and save her sister…unless she gets lost herself.
