Some doors were never meant to be found. When writer Sloane Wren returns to Pine Hollow, she’s expecting quiet mornings, dusty memories, and time to care for her aging father, Jack Wren—a retired detective whose mind has grown as brittle as the pine branches that rattle against the cabins. But the Pine Hollow she remembers is not the one she finds. The cabins that dot the lakeside aren’t just abandoned—they’re watching. Silent. Waiting. And one cabin—Cabin Zero—isn’t on any map. Whispers echo through the woods about a girl who vanished without a trace. Town records have been scrubbed clean. Locals lower their voices when Sloane walks past. A single spiral symbol, carved into wood and stone, marks places where the truth once lived—and where the silence still rules. Following a trail of forgotten maps, dusty tapes, and long-buried warnings, Sloane uncovers a terrifying legacy: a town that protects its own, a secret tied to a bird that never leaves Pine Hollow, and a spiral that may not just remember the past—but hunger for it. As Sloane digs deeper, the line between memory and reality begins to unravel. Doors open without touch. Voices call from empty cabins. And the spiral she thought was a clue? It might be a summons. In a town that thrives on what’s left unsaid, Sloane must choose: walk away while she still can, or step through a door that was never meant to be opened—and face whatever waits beyond the pines. Cabin Zero: Beneath the Pines is the chilling first novel in the Pine Hollow series—a slow-burn supernatural suspense saga where small-town secrets fester beneath moss-covered roofs, and the past never stays buried. Perfect for fans of Riley Sager, Simone St. James, and anyone who believes the woods are never truly empty. In Pine Hollow, the cabins aren’t abandoned. They’re listening.
