The suspenseful, mystery-filled first book in the award-winning Moon Mountain series by Jess Porto.

Waking up cold and alone in the forest. A friend's puzzling and gruesome murder. Dreams of a spine-chilling cabin calling to her. A sexy detective on her trail. For college student Morgan Thomas, 1997 is shaping up to be the most extraordinary -- and terrifying -- year of her life.

Everything begins to unravel when Halloween night arrives with a full moon in the sky. Having recently started her senior year at Clarkes College in the charming country town of Moon Mountain, North Carolina, Morgan and her best friend and roommate, Sheridan, plan to make it a night to remember. But the night sours when she encounters a shadowy stranger at a costume party and is unnerved by their chilling silence and peculiar behavior.

As if the odd encounter wasn't enough to put her on edge, she wakes up in the middle of the night, lying on the ground in the vast forest that borders Moon Mountain, with no recollection of how she got there. But before she can make sense of the situation, a massive creature hidden among the treetops makes its presence known, sending Morgan running for her life.

She safely finds her way home, but soon becomes plagued by recurring dreams of an eerie woodland. And when the friend who threw the party is found bludgeoned to death, pieces of an unknown puzzle begin to rise to the surface, causing Morgan to fear her own involvement. But with no memory of it, she's forced to question her sanity and whether all these troubling events are somehow connected.

As Morgan discovers more pieces, including unscrupulous revelations involving Sheridan's wealthy and influential family, the Gallaghers, she is cast into another world she could never have imagined, let alone that she would become the unwitting pawn in a dark and sinister plan.
