Welcome to Burning Rock...

“The snow is falling, the nights come early, and Burning Rock still stands. You’re listening to Burning Rock Radio…”

Late one night in the deepest, darkest part of January, Ivy Romeo sits alone in a college radio studio, playing music and talking out into the void to anyone who might still be listening. She’s about to wrap her show and. head home when she looks out the window and sees a face—a face that’s haunted her family’s dreams for years.

Only days after arriving in the slightly creepy coastal college town of Burning Rock, Ivy begins experiencing vivid dreams about strange ghostly figures and something else—something ancient and all-consuming living beneath the troubled ocean. waves. It isn’t long before those dreams start to bleed into her waking life.

At first, Ivy is determined to ignore it, but when her good friend disappears, Ivy realizes she’s going to have to put her own sanity on the line she wants to find Sam and save her town.

“And Sam, if you’re out there, we all miss you and hope to see. you soon …”

I’ve lived in the Pacific Northwest my whole life, and I knew from an early age that I wanted to tell stories about my corner of the world. I spend my free time reading on my porch and pretending that the sound of I-5 is actually the sound of the roaring ocean.
