A haunting tale of sacrifice, secrets, and something far darker than abandonment.
When Aspasia agrees to hold a stranger's baby at a train station on a freezing December night, she has no idea the act of kindness will bind her to a life-altering secret. The woman never returns. The footprints vanish in the snow. And the baby, Jasmine, becomes her daughter — in heart, and eventually on paper.
Years later, Jasmine is a teenager, starting high school. But just as Aspasia feels pride swell in her chest, the nightmares begin. Jasmine screams in her sleep. She speaks to shadows. And one winter night, she walks into a blizzard — following a voice only she can hear.
What begins as a bittersweet maternal tale unravels into a psychological horror story laced with dread, supernatural echoes, and emotional scars that refuse to heal. Who was the woman that vanished? What legacy did she leave behind in her daughter's blood? And how far will Aspasia go to protect the only thing she's ever truly loved?
Ciprian Mitoceanu, known for blending Eastern European bleakness with unnerving psychological horror, delivers a story that grips like cold fingers around your throat and doesn't let go until the final, devastating revelation.
WARNING:
This is not a feel-good story. It's a descent into uncertainty, trauma, and the creeping sense that some questions are better left unanswered. For fans of The Orphanage, The Babadook, and old-world fairy tales gone wrong.
