Summer Whispers: Stories of Briar Glen (Summer Scares Book 5)

In Briar Glen the trees watch.

In the fog-choked outskirts of Briar Glen, where an ancient, gnarled tree stands guard over a decaying wooden bridge:


Every ten years, the red eyes of the Great Oak don’t just glow—they blink. The local teenagers call it a game of “Red Light, Green Light,” believing that if you move while the eyes are open, the tree claims a piece of your shadow. But when Leo and his friends attempt the vigil under a rare blood moon, they discover the game has higher stakes. As the legendary 13th plank appears on the bridge, Leo realizes that losing your shadow is only the beginning.

Three summer stories. Teenagers see it as a chance to witness something. What they see is an invisible 13th plank that appears during a blood moon, red eyes, and the whispering ghosts that need a simple offering: a leaf.

Briar Glen isn’t your ordinary town. It is a whispering Glen, a summer setting. The teens give more than they wanted. Instead of taking a summer memory, it gets their reflection.

The curse of this old tree is heavy. Can they get back what they lost?
