Some voices were never meant to be heard. Some places were never meant to return. Some evils never truly die.

Years ago, Ava Morningstar fled the town of Keewaskah—what was left of it. A place swallowed not by time, nor by disaster... but by something far worse. Something that devours memory, silences truth, and replaces the dead with perfect copies that smile too long and blink too little.

No maps remember Keewaskah. No archives speak its name. No one else believes it ever existed.

But it's back.

And it's calling her home.

Ava receives a message scratched in blood beneath her childhood mirror: "Who will save us now?" It's the same message that appeared before the town disappeared. The same message whispered through her dreams by voices that no longer belong to the living.

When Ava returns to the forest-choked remains of Keewaskah, she finds streets that shift behind her. Houses that breathe. Names she once knew now attached to faces too still, too wrong. And at the center of it all, buried deep beneath the ground, is The Flesh-Taker—an ancient hunger that lives on stolen identities, erased memories, and fractured timelines. It doesn't kill. It replaces.

The more Ava remembers, the more it remembers her.

Now, haunted by a man named Elijah Wolf—a boy she once loved and buried with her own hands—Ava is forced to question her past, her sanity, and the fabric of reality itself. Because the deeper she digs, the more she realizes: Keewaskah never let her leave. It only let her forget.

And the Flesh-Taker never stops feeding.

For readers who devour horror that twists the mind and breaks the heart, WHO WILL SAVE US NOW is a soul-scarring descent into forgotten sins, buried grief, and the terror of remembering what was meant to stay lost.

If you love the dread-soaked mysteries of Catriona Ward, the identity horror of Stephen Graham Jones, or the existential terror of Lovecraft reimagined, this novel will grip you by the throat and never let go.

Because in Keewaskah, what you forget can still find you.

And once you hear your name whispered from the dark...

There's no one left to save you.
