A sanctuary.</p><p> </p><p>But for Ruth Wescott a grande dame of Gilded Age Philadelphia society scarred by a terrifying supernatural vision the forest is a living breathing enemy. A murderous No Man's Land minus the barbed wire. </p><p> </p><p>When her husband uproots the family to a redwood lumber town on the California coast she's forced to confront her deepest fears. Surrounded by sinister conspirators and the most forbidding wilderness on earth it's time to choose. </p><p> </p><p>A life of comfort? Or trust in the power of the Matriarch?</p><p> </p><p> </p>
