____________________________
Nolan Moore and his team of explorers arrive in the remote town of Birchlake, California to investigate its mysterious stone walls, built by an unknown hand.
Their arrival is met with suspicion by the townspeople. And when Nolan learns that a teenage girl has recently disappeared without a trace, it becomes clear there is a link between the missing girl and the secret of the stone walls.
But as Nolan and his team are drawn into the search, a thick fog descends on the town. Soon events take a dark turn, and the line between reality and imagination begins to blur, leaving Nolan and his team questioning their own sanity - and fighting for their lives.
The Possession is a brilliantly unsettling, chilling thriller about a small town with a terrifying secret - with all of the horror of Stephen King and the vision of Michael Crichton.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Rutger's creepy, creative sequel to 2018's The Anomaly finds Nolan Moore, the host of a second-rate YouTube series, dispirited by the low sales of a book based on his show. Still, he hopes to attract more of an audience when he takes his production team to northern California to investigate "one of the most little-known mysteries in the entire country." The region contains hundreds of miles of stone walls of unknown origin marked by "odd variations in height, failure to enclose, and a tendency to run through or over things like lakes and mountainsides." When Nolan reaches the town of Birchlake, he crosses paths with his ex-wife, Kristy Reardon, who's looking into the disappearance of 14-year-old Alaina Hixon. Ten days earlier, Alaina vanished while walking home with two classmates. A photo of her later posted online elicited four comments calling Alaina a witch, and one stated that it was time for the girl to join her dead mother. Smith does a fine job ratcheting up the tension as the two story lines converge. Fans of supernatural thrillers will be more than satisfied.
