A British urban fantasy thriller featuring a paranormal detective, ritual murders, ancient woodland spirits, a reluctant hero, found family, and nature vs civilisation conflict.
Some wishes should never be answered.
When a protester is found ritualistically murdered in an ancient Cornish woodland, Griffin Woodbury is deployed under the cover of Rural Security. As an operative for the Department of Paranormal Investigations, he recognises the signs others refuse to see. The land is not silent. It is waking.
Developers tear into sacred ground and activists clash with corporate interests, causing deaths to escalate. Ivy wreaths. Ash stakes. The triple death. What begins as a murder investigation spirals into something older and far more dangerous. The Dru are awake. And they are not myths.
Haunted by dissociative episodes and drawn toward the veil between worlds, Griffin must confront the fractures in his own mind while negotiating with elemental powers that do not value human life. If he fails, Cornwall will not face a killer. It will face a reckoning.
The Wishing of Trees is the second Griffin Woodbury investigation, a dark supernatural thriller perfect for readers who love folklore-driven mysteries, ancient magic, and morally complex heroes.
