About Hollow Stone by N.B. Cross
On the quiet shores of Lake Michigan sits Duswood, a small town with a long memory and an even longer silence.
When a local pizzeria becomes the site of a brutal, unexplainable attack, seventeen-year-old Vincent Granger and his friends uncover something ancient stirring beneath the cedar swamp. The adults call it hysteria. The sheriff calls it a bear. But the truth is older, heavier and waiting to be remembered.
As the town bends around denial, Vincent meets Mira Thorn, whose mother vanished under mysterious circumstances. Together they uncover a creature born from Duswood’s buried sorrow, bound to something far darker than anyone dares speak aloud.
Hollow Stone is a haunting blend of quiet horror and small-town mystery where silence is survival, and what’s forgotten never stays buried.
