Untethered - Paperback

by Rhiannon Blackwood (Author)

Thirteen years ago, her mother abandoned her, then vanished. Talia Adair never knew which of those things haunted her more.

Now that she's an adult, she tries to lay those ghosts to rest for the sake of her fraying mental health by staying with the eccentric grandmother she just met, in Elmwood- the very town her mother disappeared from. Only, things quickly turn strange when her mother is mysteriously found with hair as white as bone, half- mad, and with no memory of where she's been.

While the reunited Adair women are each a tangle of secrets within the old, half-shuttered family home, things begin to seep from the shadows of the surrounding woods. Grinning things of wings and teeth. Things from folklore. Things so old they no longer have a name.

It isn't long before Talia can no longer tell what's real or who to trust as the truth about her family's dark past begins to unravel, and a horned man draws her into a dangerous, savage game.
