About the book:

Aspiring mycologist Sydney Denik is getting a second chance. When a dream opportunity presents itself with a prestigious foundation doing promising Alzheimer's research, Sydney leaves the shambles of her old life to join a dozen other grad students at an isolated lodge hidden away in a remote, fog-shrouded inlet on Vancouver Island. But the Madrona Foundation harbors more than brilliant minds. Everyone around her is hiding a terrible secret-including the resident psychologist she's falling in love with. A student disappears, and no one but Sydney seems to care. Ghosts walk the halls. Snow falls in the middle of summer. Dead animals move like the living. The more Sydney uncovers about the foundation, the more she begins to question her own sanity. And if Sydney isn't going mad, then the horrors in the surrounding forest are real, and the Madrona Foundation may be the biggest monster of all.

*To our wonderful Hello McHenry Book Club - we wanted to be sure we shared our small update. To continue offering a great experience that includes your monthly book and our themed craft, we’ve had to slightly raise the price. It’s all under one transaction as well which makes things easier for you! There is a non-crafter option for those who just want to come and chat about our book and be with our amazing book community! We truly do appreciate your support and continued faith in us!*
