Fear increases incrementally with the surge of the wind wrapping itself like a tongue around the pine trees. She closes her eyes to the searing panic as the path winds itself one way and another, up and down, each one into a deeper, darker part of the wood.

The Silent Forest is an atmospheric tale of despair and melancholy as a mother searches for her missing daughter in the neighbouring forest. A gothic-inspired short story with arresting imagery, weaving the everyday with the horror of a mother's nightmare.
