Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Black snow is falling over Starling Heights, and something buried beneath the town has begun to wake.For generations, the people of Starling Heights have celebrated Christmas with familiar traditions, cheerful decorations, and carefully preserved stories. What they have forgotten is the broken promise beneath those traditions-and the guardians who once protected the forest and mountain surrounding their town.Now ten twisted figures are emerging from the darkness.A possessed snowman waits beside the cemetery gate. Krampus carries bells that speak with the voices of the dead. A cursed nutcracker marches after midnight, while a spectral reindeer wanders the forest without a shadow. A burned gingerbread man, a walking Christmas tree, a sinister Santa, a haunted elf doll, a Winter Yule Witch, and a fallen angel each carry another piece of the truth.As black snow settles across the town, Lena Antonay must follow the trail connecting the nightmares before Christmas morning arrives. Yet the creatures are not merely monsters. They are wounded guardians shaped by betrayal, and they have returned to collect a debt Starling Heights has refused to remember.The Black Snow of Starling Heights is an atmospheric Christmas horror story told through ten interconnected tales. Dark, haunting, and threaded with winter folklore, it explores the cost of forgotten promises, the danger of comfortable lies, and the fragile hope that even old wounds can begin to heal.Christmas is coming to Starling Heights.This year, it remembers everything.
