A breathtakingly beautiful woman hides behind a gray wig—and the tree she tends remembers every sin.
When a suspicious life insurance claim leads a burned-out investigator to a care facility run by a woman who deliberately disguises herself as elderly—yet remains hauntingly beautiful—he uncovers a trail of perfectly timed deaths, vanished tenants, and a sentient tree that demands human sacrifice in exchange for resurrection.
A dark new religion is coming—and it has roots.
It started as a whisper, a promise of health. It ended as humanity’s last mistake.
When a growing tree that seems to be helping people with injuries begins rewriting the rules of civilization, people welcome its help… until they realize it is re-growing them.
What begins with healed injuries spirals into obsession and mental hypnosis. Freedom is redefined. Desires are categorized. And those who resist—quiet scientist, forgotten churches and the desperate aware few—begin to vanish. But not everyone is willing to be rewritten and re-formed. In a world where compliance feels like comfort and rebellion feels like madness, one question echoes louder than all the rest:
What if the thing saving you… Is just saving you for later?
Madwood is a supernatural suspense novel blending psychological horror and insurance fraud that spirals toward a deeper truth about identity, belief and the price of survival.
