It rings only when someone's about to die.

For years, the bell above the crumbling church of Hollow's End has hung silent, a rusted relic from a forgotten time. The villagers have tried to forget what it means, what it once heralded, and what they buried beneath their feet to build their quiet lives.

But when the ancient bell tolls again after decades of silence, something stirs in the soil beneath the village. Something old. Something hungry for more than just flesh.

Simon Ashcroft, a former priest fleeing the ruins of his faith, returns to Hollow's End to face the memories he tried to bury long ago. What he uncovers is not just an old legend, but a truth much darker: the Beneath doesn't want sacrifice anymore, it wants remembrance. It feeds on silence. And it is never satisfied.

As the dead rise, secrets unravel, and the village teeters on the brink of collapse, Simon must lead a reckoning not only with the horrors below but with the guilt, shame, and lies above.

Because in Hollow's End...
Forgetting is a death sentence.

A chilling, atmospheric novel of memory, guilt, and the dreadful weight of silence, The Last Church Bell will haunt you long after its final toll.
