Jessica Hamilton’s THE WOODS, in which, after the death of her daughter, a woman moves her family out of the city to a secluded house surrounded by deep and lovely wood, hoping for a fresh start, but the house has a history-one that will force them to confront all the resentments they’ve buried; pitched for fans of Marcus Kliewer’s WE USED TO LIVE HERE and navigating the thin line between psychological unraveling and supernatural horror, to Adrienne Kerr at Simon & Schuster Canada, in a two-book deal, for publication in fall 2026, by Carolyn Forde at Transatlantic Literary Agency (NA).
