The Wood Remembers

Dr. Elias Brenner studies memories. But he never expected to find them trapped inside wood. When the curator of the Grimmstadt Puppet Museum sends him an urgent request, Brenner arrives expecting a simple investigation into a strange collection. Instead, he discovers seven wooden puppets that move together at midnight. Each puppet carries the name of a dead resident. Each one remembers something the town has tried to forget.
Hidden inside their carved bodies are impossible inventions from the nineteenth century-devices designed to preserve human memory long after death. As Brenner uncovers the secrets of their creator, Heinrich Voss, he discovers a darker truth about the town, the missing puppeteer, and the night everything changed. Because the puppets are not telling stories. They are keeping evidence. And they have one final memory left to reveal.
The Wood Remembers is a gothic supernatural mystery about forgotten lives, buried secrets, and the terrifying things that refuse to disappear.
