Hearts on a Trail: A Halloween Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218787417)

Before the pandemic. Before HaptXs. There was just Harper, Mark... and something watching them in the woods.

What was supposed to be a peaceful fall getaway quickly unravels into a chilling ordeal when Harper agrees to spend Halloween weekend with her boyfriend, Mark, deep in the forest trails of the Appalachian Mountains. But the woods have their own secrets, ones wrapped in ghost stories, flickering shadows, and the unsettling gaze of a black cat that always seems to be watching.

When a strange little girl delivers an eerie warning, and belongings start to disappear and reappear in impossible places, Harper begins to question what's real and what's stalking them under the cover of night. As their love edges into something more, so does the fear that they may not be alone.

Tense, haunting, and emotionally laced, Hearts on a Trail is the unsettling short story prequel to Hearts in Isolation, revealing the cracks in Harper and Mark's bond that would later split under the weight of even darker conspiracies.

Some paths lead to love. Others lead to secrets best left buried.
