Synopsis

From USA Today and #1 Amazon bestselling author Jeremy Bates comes a tale of mystery and horror set in Japan's ancient Suicide Forest, a place that is easy to enter but, for some, impossible to leave.

Just outside of Tokyo lies Aokigahara, a vast forest and one of the most beautiful wilderness areas in Japan . . . and also the most infamous spot to commit suicide in the world. Legend has it that the spirits of those many suicides are still roaming, haunting deep in the ancient woods.

When bad weather prevents a group of friends from climbing neighboring Mt. Fuji, they decide to spend the night camping in Aokigahara. But they get more than they bargained for when one of them is found hanged in the morning—and they realize there might be some truth to the legends after all.

Contains mature themes.

4.0 Stars This was easily one of the best pieces of survival horror that I have read in a long time. A lot of work was spent developing the characters and their interpersonal relationships, which made the deterioration of the group so much more personal. The characters did somehow fall into the class......more

Someone had painted what looked to be a white arrow about ten feet up on each trunk. They pointed in opposite directions. "Are those arrows?" Mel said, frowning. "I reckon the police made them," Neil said, "to find their way to other trails." "Or bodies," I said. Everyone looked at me. I was expecting a s......more
