Description
The rumors are deadly. The truth is deadlier.
In the small town of Raventree Hollow, rumors fly fast on the residents’ whisper networks. When word spreads that the town’s wealthy young bachelor is in a mysterious new relationship, factions form and deadly decisions are made. After all, the town has a reputation to keep.
As aspiring photojournalist Shirley Bettencourt investigates the rumors, the truth about the town’s dark history comes to light. Something is lurking under the surrounding hills. Something is feeding off the sins of Raventree Hollow.
Can Shirley stop the town from being consumed by an ancient evil?
Raventree Hollow is an American gothic horror tale set in the 1950s. A standalone story, it is the first book of the new A Machete & Quill Horror line.

RAVENTREE HOLLOW, although set in a quiet Northern California community, reminds me so much of quaint and cozy British folk Horror. The town of Raventree Hollow is remarkably encapsulated, even though it has its intrepid business commuters, and young people who graduate high school and move away. Yet the town just seems so isolated, so entrenched, almost like an early Twilight Zone episode featuring a town encased in a bubble, as if nothing from the outside world can touch it.
Yet it's certainly not a perfect community (nor was Peyton Place). The gossip mill grinds constantly and exceedingly fine; the wealthy on-the-hill Winfield clan are generous and benevolent, yet seem like medieval feudal lords. Something on the opposite hill, beneath the convent, is out-of-this-world and implacably dangerous. The eventual conclusion is mind-shatteringly horrible.
