The Lantern in Black Hollow By Channel Herselman When the fog whispers and the red moon rises, something ancient awakens in the woods. Seventeen-year-old Elara Thorn has never believed in the legends that haunt her quiet village until a strange lantern glows deep within Black Hollow, and a pale man with eyes like obsidian calls her by name. He claims her family betrayed him centuries ago, and now, vengeance runs in his blood. As people vanish and shadows tighten their grip on the village, Elara must uncover the truth buried in her family’s dark past. Armed with only an old dagger and the secrets of her bloodline, she faces a terrifying choice: run from the curse or become the hunter fate demands her to be. But the Hollow never forgets. And some lanterns lead only to darkness.
