The Whispering Forest
Vancouver, 1800s-A settlement on the edge of the unknown. A legend lurking in the shadows. A mystery no one is prepared to face. The settlers of Vancouver's first colony came seeking a new life, braving the wilds of the Pacific Northwest with promises of prosperity. But as the winter sets in, that promise turns to fear. Entire families vanish without a trace, their cabins left untouched, their fires still smoldering. The only clues are cryptic carvings on trees, whispering winds that carry voices from the depths of the forest, and the stories-the ones the Coast Salish have told for generations. Stories of something ancient.

Stories of something ancient.
Something that watches.
Something that hunts. Caught Between Two Worlds
Thomas Blackfeather is a man with a foot in both worlds-the son of a Coast Salish mother and a European father, a tracker with unmatched skills, and a man burdened by the weight of two identities. When the settlers turn to him for help, desperate for answers, he finds himself pulled deeper into a mystery that challenges everything he knows. The Coast Salish elders warn him: stay away from the deep woods. But Thomas cannot ignore the signs. As he follows the trail of the missing, he encounters symbols of protection, warnings of something unnatural, and tracks that should not exist. The forest itself seems alive, pulsing with an eerie presence. The wind carries whispers that twist through the trees. And something is watching him. A Clash of Cultures, A Battle for Survival
With fear gripping the settlement, suspicions rise between the settlers and the Indigenous people. Some blame the Coast Salish, seeing them as keepers of dark secrets. Others whisper of curses, of vengeful spirits that punish those who trespass. As the tensions mount, Thomas' own loyalty is tested. He must navigate the settlers' growing paranoia, the wisdom of his ancestors, and his own unraveling sanity. Because the deeper he searches, the more he begins to believe that the legends are real. And that something hunts in the darkness of the trees.
The forest whispers its warnings.
The settlers did not listen.
Now, something stirs in the night. Will Thomas Blackfeather uncover the truth before the forest takes him too?
