The Reckoners

The town of Sycamore looks ordinary—weathered colonial homes, an aging park statue, and streets that seem to sleep. But Ezra Kane knows better. As his bus rolls into town, the fog clinging to the windows feels more like a warning than weather.

People whisper about Sycamore’s past—about the ones who vanished, the symbols carved into brick walls, and the shadows that move when no one’s looking. Ezra’s mom calls it superstition. Ezra’s gut says otherwise.

When strange things start happening—his name scratched into stone, pages missing from local archives, and a voice that only he seems to hear—Ezra must decide whether to stay hidden or chase the truth. But in Sycamore, the truth doesn’t come easy. And some secrets were never meant to be unearthed.

Whispers of Sycamore is a chilling, slow-burn mystery with supernatural overtones, razor-edge suspense, and a reluctant hero who must decide if he’s brave enough to listen to what the town has been trying to say all along.
