Banebirth

Soll Casey stole his brother's future after causing an accident that left him maimed. To win his forgiveness, Soll steals again. This time, it's Charlie's discarded screenplay, Banebirth, that brilliantly allegorizes the conflicts unfolding in their changing town. If he can present it to the power players gentrifying Sandhaven, a golden opportunity awaits: a chance to become the hometown hero, and to be the champion of his brother's talent, earning the redemption his brother is too bitter to offer. 

But something else has arrived with the new neighbors.

A specter roams the woods. It stalks locals. It torments transplants. Suspicion mounts between the newcomers and the longtime residents as accusations of terrorism fly between them.  

Desperate not to lose his opportunity amid social chaos, Soll continues his pursuit, only to discover Sandhaven faces a more insidious threat. An ancient, supernatural presence has taken root, inflaming the unrest and festering the wounds of contention. With violence threatening to erupt, Soll must resolve the rifts and confront the monstrous entity before it destroys Sandhaven entirely.
