Hemlock Falls isn't like other towns. You won't find it on a map, your phone won't work here, and the forest outside town might kill you. Winnie Wednesday wants nothing more than to join the Luminaries, the ancient order that protects humanity from the nightmares that rise in the forest of Hemlock Falls each night. Ever since her father was exposed as a traitor, Winnie and her family have been shunned.
But on her . sixteenth birthday, she can take the deadly Luminary hunter trials and restore her family's good name. Or die trying. In order to survive, Winnie must enlist the help of the one person who can train her : Jay Friday, resident bad boy and Winniè s ex-best friend. While Jay might be the best hunter in Hemlock Falls, he also knows more about the forest's nightmares than he should. And together, he and Winnie will discover a danger lurking in Hemlock Falls that no one is prepared for.
Not all monsters can be slain, and not all nightmares are confined to the dark.
