After a devastating earthquake strikes the Arcadia mining colony, a hidden tunnel that was never on any map is revealed. When Kayla's younger brother disappears into the depths, she descends to search for him... only to discover a subterranean world unlike anything she'd imagined.

Beneath the rocks and ruins lie the Hollows—ancient creatures that feed on breath, long thought extinct or merely mythical. But as Kayla digs deeper, strange things begin to happen. Her skin changes. Her voice echoes where it shouldn't. She no longer feels cold.

As she searches for her brother, she begins to lose her humanity—or so she thinks.

But the truth is more dangerous than the transformation.

She won't become one of them.

She always has been one.

Finally, she's made Earth her home.

And now, Kayla must make a choice: seal the old world above... or awaken the power buried beneath.

"The Hollow" is a dark and mysterious fantasy novel exploring identity, buried memory, and the magic of forgotten origins. Perfect for fans of cryptic mysteries, paths of physical transformation, and poetic mythological stories.
