Every town has secrets. Hollowmere has thirteen.
And some secrets should never be brought into the light.
When Tess Vale moves to the quiet, isolated town of Hollowmere, she expects unfamiliar faces, strange neighbors, and a difficult new beginning.
What she doesn’t expect is a town where every house has an identical lantern, the clocks seem to remember things people have forgotten, and a mysterious bell tower rings thirteen times—even though everyone insists it has been silent for years.
Then the lanterns begin to glow.
And something starts watching Tess from the darkness.
A girl appears in reflections where no one should be standing. Old photographs reveal faces that the townspeople refuse to recognize. Memories disappear. Doors lead to places that shouldn’t exist.
And somewhere beneath Hollowmere’s peaceful streets, a terrifying secret has been waiting for someone brave enough to uncover it.
As Halloween approaches, Tess and her new friends discover that the town’s forgotten history is tied to a mysterious bargain—one that has protected Hollowmere for generations at a terrible cost.
Now the thirteenth lantern is waiting to be lit.
And if Tess cannot uncover the truth, the town may lose something far more frightening than its memories.
The Thirteenth Lantern is a chilling supernatural mystery filled with ghostly encounters, sinister secrets, impossible clocks, and heart-pounding suspense.
Perfect for readers ages 12 and older who love haunted towns, creepy mysteries, Halloween adventures, and stories filled with unexpected twists.
Some secrets are buried. Others are kept burning.
But in Hollowmere, the scariest thing of all might be what everyone has agreed to forget.
