You can't hide from what's waiting in Ashlough Forest.
Five days after Eileen vanishes into the vast, shadowed wilds of Ashlough, her camera is found washed downriver--its final, haunting images raising more questions than answers. Determined to uncover the truth, Chris and four close friends form a desperate search party and plunge into the heart of the forest, where every tree seems to whisper warnings, and every path feels like a trap.
Hunted is a relentless survival horror novel, masterfully blending psychological suspense with the terror of nature itself. The forest is more than a backdrop--it's a living, breathing menace that turns every moment into a test of courage and endurance. As the group is pushed to their limits, the line between natural and supernatural blurs, and the fear of what hunts them becomes almost unbearable.
Perfect for fans of survival horror, psychological thrillers, and stories where the wilderness itself becomes the enemy, Hunted is a chilling journey into the unknown.
Enter Ashlough Forest--if you dare.
