The forest invites you in . . . but will never let you go. As a
child, Gretchen's twin sister was taken by a witch in the woods.
Ever since, Gretchen and her brother, Ansel, have felt the long
branches of the witch's forest threatening to make them disappear
too. Years later, when their stepmother casts Gretchen and Ansel
out, they find themselves in sleepy Live Oak, South Carolina.
They're invited to stay with Sophia Kelly, a beautiful candy maker
who molds sugary magic: coveted treats that create confidence,
bravery, and passion. Life seems idyllic, and Gretchen and Ansel
gradually forget their haunted past -- until Gretchen meets
handsome local outcast Samuel. He tells her the witch isn't gone --
it's lurking in the forest, preying on girls after Live Oak's
infamous chocolate festival each year, and looking to make Gretchen
its next victim. Gretchen is determined to stop running and start
fighting back. Yet, the further she investigates the mystery of
what the witch is and how it chooses its victims, the more she
wonders who the real monster is. Gretchen is certain of only one
thing: a monster is coming, and it will never go away hungry.
