But this legend has just become a way to scare local kids—until Leah Jones’s brother disappears.<br><br><br>Leah has no hope for a future outside of Winston, and her only remaining solace is her music.

But when Owen is taken by the Lord of the Wood, Leah must face the dangers of the forest to write a song that will win Owen back—and discover the truth of how her life went so very wrong.</p>
