Publisher's Synopsis
A sleepy town.
A missing person.
A strange figure lurking in the woods.
The small town of Poplar is a quiet, comfortable, and respectable place to raise children. The neighbors are decent and the seasons are beautiful. All is well until the night young Ian Whelan glimpses something moving around in his backyard. Then everything begins to change.
Lies are exposed, bodies are uncovered, and a well-hidden killer is finally dragged out into the light. Slowly, the stark reality of what's been going on in the gloomy woods and musty basements of Poplar is realized, and this revelation will leave a pile of bodies in its destructive wake.
From the author of Ash Above, Snow Below comes a poignant meditation on how we confront the monsters of our childhood. Equal parts grim and adventurous, The Omen Tree features a variety of adventurous outcasts and deviant rogues that will capture your heart one moment and darken it the next.
