"Stephen King's It meets Stephenie Meyer's Twilight in Snyman's first installment of a new series. This is a frightening story of horror and fantasy woven together to create a delectable tale of the macabre." ~School Library Journal
Don't miss the exciting Bram Stoker Award nominated sequel, The Bone Carver!
Shadow Grove isn't a typical town. Bad things happen here. Children disappear, one after the other, and nobody is doing anything about it. Parents don't grieve, missing posters don't line the streets, and the sheriff seems unconcerned.
Seventeen-year-old Rachel Cleary lives on the outskirts of Shadow Grove, next to the creepy forest everyone pretends doesn't exist. Usually the forest is filled with an eerie calm, an unmistakable graveyard solemnity. But the trees have started whispering, forgotten creatures are stirring, and the nights feel darker than ever.
Something is stalking the residents of Shadow Grove, changing them into brain-dead caricatures of themselves. It's up to Rachel to stop the devouring of her hometown before all is destroyed and everyone she loves is forever lost.
"Snyman’s creative adoption of English folklore adds a unique twist, and satisfying frights abound."
"Monique Snyman retains a spine-chilling sense of dread on every page of this truly excellent work."
"The Night Weaver introduces a world of myth, intrigue, and darkness with considerable technique."
"Snyman's storytelling will have people lining up for the next book in the series."
