Bellwether looks ordinary enough-but the truth lies beneath the soil, coiled like a spiral. When Iris, a wandering documentarian, arrives in the forgotten town for a story no one will speak aloud, she uncovers 'the Keeping, ' an ancient ritual that shapes-and swallows-the community. As the summer solstice approaches, the silence breaks. but some truths come at a cost. From the author of *The Hollow Field* comes a new folk horror novel that asks: What happens when the whole town is in on the secret, and you're the only one left to remember?
