In a town where everyone has a secret, some truths are best left unearthed.
Rebecca Barrett arrives at Blackthorn estate expecting quiet work restoring a historic Southern property and assisting with an archaeological dig. But the land carries more than history—it holds long-buried secrets, bitter memories, and a legacy of unresolved grief.
From the moment she settles into her role, Rebecca feels an unsettling tension beneath the surface of the estate's peaceful façade. Something happened here—something no one wants to talk about. As unease deepens and odd coincidences mount, Rebecca must rely on her instincts, her intellect, and the wary guidance of Sheriff Dru Colson to navigate a web of personal and historical mystery.
Set in the haunted woods of Mississippi, Babe in the Woods is a brooding, character-driven suspense where the past lingers just out of reach, and the truth waits in silence.
