The Crying Forest

A tale of murder and magic, dark desires and the even darker cost of their fulfillment.

In 1940s Australia, a European witch named Agata Rosso believes a young girl, Lía Munro, possesses special gifts that can restore her youth and vitality, as well as that of her ailing husband. Agata sets a deadly plan in motion to capture and exploit Lía, but Lía has powers of her own. As the clock ticks down, Lía must learn to harness her abilities to protect herself and her father from the encroaching darkness.

Set against the backdrop of a remote Australian community haunted by secrets and folklore, The Crying Forest is a gripping folk horror story that combines elements of crime fiction and the occult. It explores themes of family, sacrifice, and the battle between good and evil, drawing readers into a world teeming with ghosts, shapeshifters, and profoundly human evil. Will Lía have enough power to protect herself, plus the father she loves so much?
