"Twisty, creepy, and atmospheric- this book will have you questioning your sanity and the sanity of Silla, our narrator. When things get too rough at home, Silla and her younger sister Nori flee to their aunt's house. She greets them happily, but as the days pass things start to fray. Were the trees that close when we arrived? Why isn't our aunt around much? Who is this boy that came from the forest?"
