Crossroads - Paperback

by Mark A. Daniel (Author)

Seventy-nine people watched a boy die live on Twitch.

It was supposed to be a dare - a late-night livestream inside the abandoned Walker house, a place everyone in Eastland County knew better than to enter. When the floor gave way and the feed went dark, the video vanished within hours.

The house did not.

Emmy Moore knows the death wasn't an accident. Drawn back to the Walker house by a pull she can't explain, she feels something ancient stirring beneath the rotted floorboards - something that has waited generations to be seen again.

Her grandmother warned her to stay away.

The land remembers.

And the house always takes something in return.

With only her instincts - and the fierce loyalty of her one-eyed dog, Patch - Emmy steps into a mystery rooted in blood, buried secrets, and a legacy her family never wanted to pass down. What she finds inside the house will test more than her courage.

Because survival demands sacrifice.

As the darkness closes in, Emmy must decide what she's willing to lose to save the people she loves. The choice she makes will change her life forever - and leave scars that never fully heal.

Crossroads is a gripping standalone supernatural thriller set in rural Texas, blending modern horror, relentless suspense, and emotional stakes that linger long after the final page. Perfect for readers who crave haunted houses, buried legacies, and stories where triumph is earned at a terrible cost.
