The Lanterns of Deadwater Crossing
High in the Scottish Highlands lies Deadwater Crossing, a wind-scraped strip of moor where the fog carries stories older than the stones.
Locals whisper about the lights: strange, swaying lanterns that appear in the mist, always just out of reach. Step toward them, and they lead you where you shouldn't go.
When four night hikers vanish without a trace, search teams enter the Crossing and return pale, disoriented, and terrified. Only two stand against the growing dread:
Erin MacKenna, whose uncle was the first to disappear, and Mara Anwar, an investigative journalist chasing the truth.
But the deeper they venture into the fog, the more the Crossing changes, bending time, twisting paths, and revealing its silent, long-armed keepers. What waits at its heart is older than the village, older than the maps... and it wants them both.
To survive, they must uncover the rules of a place where every light is a lure, every shadow is watching, and every choice opens a gate that may never close again.
In the Crossing, the only thing more dangerous than following the lights... is looking away from them.
Atmospheric, relentless, and steeped in Highland folklore, The Lanterns of Deadwater Crossing will pull you into the mist, and not all who enter will find the way out.
