Stafii: Uncanny Voices in the Night

A year after the events of The Village of the Hanged, the narrator returns to Lena's home village to marry her and is drawn deeper into the darkness his first book only hinted at. He hears of Florica, who waited forty years by a window for a voice she had answered only once. Of men who vanished without a trace, and women found days later in the marsh, changed. And on his own wedding night, he must learn the family's second rule: whoever answers is lost. Stafii is a true story about love, inheritance, and an ancient voice that knows exactly whose name to call. Book 2 of the Carpathian Chronicles.
