One bad egg spoils a dozen. One bad witch corrupts a whole town.

Deep in the shadowy backwoods of Canada lies Petawawa, a quiet, isolated town where everyone knows each other and nothing ever changes. Or at least, that was true…until she arrived.

Rosy is a stranger who moves into a crumbling house with a rotten history, a place where secrets fester and something ancient waits to be stirred. From the moment she sets foot in town, the air thickens. Animals are born twisted. Children whisper things they shouldn’t know. Shadows stretch longer than they should. And misfortune clings to the townsfolk like a sickness with no cure.

Rosy isn’t just odd, she’s wrong in a way no one can quite name. And whatever darkness she brought with her is starting to take root.

As Petawawa begins to unravel, three unlikely figures are drawn into the storm: Christine, an aspiring veterinarian haunted by guilt; Inspector Wilson, a local investigator with too many questions and too few answers; and Todd, a broken man who’s lost too much already. Together, they must uncover the truth behind the witch in their midst, before the town falls completely under her spell. Can Christine, Wilson, and Todd, break free from the witch’s claws and put an end to her curse?

A Witch in the Nest is the chilling first volume of The Nest Trilogy, a brutal blend of folk horror, creeping dread, and supernatural terror. For fans of Pet Sematary, and The Ritual, this is a story where curses don’t die…they wait.

And once evil nests, it never leaves.
