Twelve-year-old Evie Markham is trapped in a silence more suffocating than the smoke that stole everything. The fire that consumed her family home, claiming her parents and younger brother, has left her scarred, haunted by fragmented memories and a chilling question: did she start it? Sent to live with her estranged aunt in Havenwood, a remote mountain town shrouded in mist and steeped in unsettling folklore, Evie finds herself not just an orphan, but a suspect. The townsfolk whisper of a vengeful mountain spirit, appeased only by a centuries-old pact demanding sacrifice, and their whispers twist into accusations, pinning Evie as the next offering.

Havenwood is a character in itself—a place where the line between reality and myth blurs. Towering peaks, perpetually veiled in mist, loom over the town like watchful sentinels. The air hums with unspoken dread, a weight that settles on Evie’s already burdened shoulders. Her only solace is Orion, an enigmatic boy drawn to her quiet sorrow. He understands the town’s whispers better than anyone, carrying his own burden of secrets tied to the ancient pact and the sacrifices it demands. His protectiveness is fierce, yet laced with an ambivalence that both comforts and unsettles her. He urges her to confront the spectral visions of her lost brother, visions more vivid than mere hallucination, whispering cryptic warnings: "The pact demands a sacrifice. Fix what you broke."

As Evie pieces together the puzzle of her past, a terrifying conspiracy takes shape. Her parents weren’t just victims of the fire—they were active participants in Havenwood's dark rituals. The townsfolk’s whispers take on a new dimension. They weren’t just accusing her—they were protecting their pact, even if it meant silencing her permanently. Orion’s own connection to the pact becomes chillingly clear, his family deeply entrenched in Havenwood’s bloody history. He is torn between loyalty and a growing affection for Evie, his ambivalence a ticking clock counting down to a devastating choice.

Guided by her brother’s spectral pleas and Orion’s enigmatic support, Evie delves deeper, uncovering the true nature of the sacrifices demanded by the pact—sacrifices her parents were willing to make, and sacrifices the town is now preparing to demand of her. The fire that stole everything becomes a flickering light, illuminating a descent into the heart of Havenwood’
