Synopsis

When Sherry "Mimic" Mahayan—a playfull rich cat with a knack for trouble—is invited to the forgotten town of Hemlock Ridge, he expects a simple mystery. Instead, he and his fiery protege, Mi Fan the tiger, stumble into a chilling web of secrets buried beneath the quiet streets.

The townsfolk whisper of ancient rituals, strange disappearances, and an eerie connection to Mimic's late mother—a woman whose shadow still looms over the cursed village. As night falls, the lines between reality and myth blur, and Mimic begins to suspect he’s at the center of a dangerous game.

But Hemlock Ridge doesn’t forgive trespassers easily. With time running out and unseen forces closing in, Mimic and Mi Fan must dig deeper than ever before. The truth waits beneath the surface, but it may cost them more than they’re willing to pay.

For fans of dark mysteries and supernatural twists, "Shadows of Hemlock Ridge" will pull you in—and won’t let you go.

Note from author

Dear Reader,

"Shadows of Hemlock Ridge" was born from my fascination with the idea that the past never truly stays buried. Whether it’s family legacies, forgotten promises, or the secrets of a small town, history has a way of catching up to us—sometimes in the most unexpected and haunting ways.

Mimic, with his wit and sarcasm, became my way of navigating this tangled web of mystery and danger. He’s not your typical hero, and that’s exactly why I love him. Paired with Mi Fan, a fierce and loyal force of nature, the two uncover not just the darkness lurking in Hemlock Ridge, but also the truth about themselves.

This story is for those who love peeling back layers, uncovering the strange, and finding that even in the shadows, there’s always a spark of humanity—flawed, messy, but worth fighting for.

Thank you for stepping into this eerie little world with me. I hope it pulls you in as much as it pulled me in while writing it.

See you in the shadows.
