Hollow: Blue Sprayed Edge Edition by Caroline Peckham, Susanne Valenti (Hardback) US Import

Don’t listen to the whispers of the woods.
Don’t trust the man cloaked in shadow.
Don’t earn the wrath of the scattered spirits.
Don’t go out after dark.

Once every fifty years, the Great Hunt calls for Champions willing to risk death to break an ancient curse rooted deep within a living, haunted forest. Ferris Creed never expected to be one of them. She is not Fae, not trained for combat, and not prepared for what waits beyond the tree line. Yet the forest offers a single prize, a boon powerful enough to change her fate, and Ferris is willing to gamble everything to claim it.

The woods are ruled by spirits, bound by broken magic and scattered relics that fuel the corruption spreading through the land. To survive, Ferris must unite the lost spirits, recover the missing amulets, and confront the curse at its source. Every step draws her deeper into danger, where rules are enforced by whispers and shadows strike without warning.

Within the forest, Ferris comes face to face with Prince Bane, the feared leader of the Hollows. Known as a merciless figure of legend, he commands both terror and loyalty. Their encounters are charged with threat, tension, and an uneasy pull neither of them can ignore. Prince Bane intends to be her end, yet Ferris carries her own oath, one she refuses to abandon.

As the Hunt unfolds, alliances shift, truths surface, and survival demands sacrifice. Ferris must rely on cunning and resolve to outlast the forest and its monsters, knowing that victory may come at a cost far greater than she expected.
