The river remembers
and it wants its story told.
A desperate letter draws Fern Oakby to Witherby, where unnatural reeds are choking the river and the wind through their stalks sounds unnervingly like a warning. The adults hear whistling. The children hear music.
With Millie, Squib, and Eurydice at her side, Fern expects a troubling botanical puzzle. Instead, she finds a village holding its breath, a waterway gone silent of fish and birds, and a mystery rooted in old magic, grief, and danger. The reeds are spreading, the song grows stronger after dusk, and whatever waits beneath the water is not finished calling.
To save Witherby, Fern must untangle the truth before the river claims another soul.
Genre: Fantasy
