Echoes Beneath the Pines: A Sci-Fi Fantasy (Whispers of the Ancients Book 2)
About
The forest remembers. And it’s done waiting.
Lyra Vale swore she’d never return to the woods that stole her childhood. But when a girl vanishes near the Hanging Pine, the forest calls her back—with whispers no one else can hear and symbols that burn behind her eyes.
She doesn’t just sense the forest. It senses her.
Partnered with Cade Mercer, a brooding cop hiding scars of his own, Lyra unearths a truth buried deeper than roots: an ancient force beneath the soil, older than memory, capable of warping time and bending thought.
This isn’t nature—it’s a system. One designed to evolve. And it’s been watching her.
As shared dreams twist into warnings and psychic echoes bleed into reality, Lyra must unravel a lineage she never knew existed—before the thing beneath the pines decides she’s outlived her purpose.
Because the girl isn’t missing.
She’s been chosen.
And if Lyra fails, the breach won’t just consume the forest…
It’ll rewrite the world.
