An atmospheric feminist horror novel about a woman trying to reinvent herself at a secluded artists' colony, only to be drawn into its dark past--from the Thriller and Stoker Award-nominated author of The Violence. Sarah Carpenter is starting over. She's on the run--leaving behind her unsupportive, narcissistic ex-boyfriend and alcoholic, abusive mother--headed for a new beginning at Tranquil Falls, a secluded artists' colony. There, with no cell signal or internet to distract her, she hopes to rediscover her love for pottery and put back together the broken pieces of her life. But when Sarah finds the body of a young woman while digging a hole for a pit kiln, things start falling apart. Her fellow artists begin acting strangely: The fiber artist seems to be knitting an endless scarf. The violinist sounds like he's battling the devil himself every evening. The calligrapher scrawls strange words and grins at everyone with ink-stained teeth. Not to mention the strange dreams Sarah has been having night after night. When she discovers glass shards in her clay, Sarah begins to wonder if someone is out to get her--or if she's losing her grip out here in the wilds, where the pounding of the waterfall never, ever fades. As she investigates the beautiful grounds and the crumbling resort looming over them all, she unearths a chillingly dark past that can no longer remain buried. . . .
