Source Material

Stranger Things meets Sharp Objects meets The Haunting of Bly Manor in this showstopping suspense thriller fusing small-town mystery with cinematic science fiction…

“What if I told you that God was never up there, and has been just below our feet this whole time?” Literary agent Jane and her thriller-writing cousin TJ have carved out lives for themselves amidst the skyscrapers of Chicago, a far cry from their isolated hometown of Ketchum many hours to the south.

When TJ’s writer’s block risks both their careers, that’s where they turn for creative inspiration, agreeing to attend the high school reunion that will also bring Jane back into the orbit of storm-chasing stalker Lincoln and an ancient elemental threat eroding the heart of Illinois.

Because there’s a reason they’ve stayed away for so long, unspoken words festering between them of the incident in the local woods twenty years ago, the night Evie disappeared into the shadows in a flash of amber light.

But the forest has been whispering to Lincoln ever since, and as Jane and TJ arrive home, the voices call to him again, hissing three solitary words: she is here.

Source Material is an enthralling exploration of childhood trauma, found family, the tenuous fibres that bind us, and how they tear us apart.

A must-read for fans of Stephen King, Gillian Flynn, and Silvia Moreno-Garcia.
