Blood in the Snow

In a town that rewrites its tragedies and buries its ghosts beneath polite silence, Alice returns to the one place she swore she'd never see again: the house where her sister vanished. Twelve years ago, Claire disappeared during a fire that should've taken them both. The town called it an accident. Alice called it a nightmare. But the house? The house never called it anything-it just waited.

Now the nursery door swings open without touch. The blocks spell out warnings no one wants to read. And the mobile above the crib spins in patterns that don't follow wind-but memory.

When Elias, the boy Alice once trusted and once left behind, walks through the door carrying more guilt than bullets, they must descend together-into rooms not listed on floorplans, through versions of events rewritten too many times to be real, and into the root system of a house that doesn't haunt... it archives.

Because something is still down there.

Something unfinished.

Something that remembers them better than they remember themselves.

Blood in the Snow is a chilling psychological thriller that blends ghost story, trauma, and metafiction. For fans of The Haunting of Hill House and House of Leaves, this novel asks: what if the scariest thing inside the house... is the version of you it remembers best?
