Coffin Bend

As a teenager, Danny survived a catastrophic storm and a night of violence that should have changed Bridgerton forever. By morning, the damage was gone. The dead had vanished. No one remembered what had happened, and every trace of the nightmare had been erased except for Danny's memories. Years later, still haunted by events no one else believes were real, Danny returns to Bridgerton searching for proof. His investigation leads him back through fractured memories, impossible details, and a town that seems untouched by time, toward an isolated shack above the valley known as Coffin Bend. What he finds is not a conventional haunting and is not a mystery with an easy solution. "Coffin Bend" is an atmospheric cosmic-horror novella that explores the cost of remembering what the rest of the world has forgotten, and what it means to keep choosing love and sacrifice in the face of something far older than human intention.
