About the book
Once upon a time, Andrew gave Thomas his heart. Now, he might have to destroy him.
Andrew Perrault finds refuge in the fairytales he writes—dark, twisted stories that only his best friend, Thomas Rye, truly understands. But something is wrong with Thomas. His parents have vanished, blood stains his sleeves, and his once-vivid artwork has fallen silent.
Then Andrew follows Thomas into the forbidden woods and discovers the horrifying truth: Thomas’s drawings have come to life, and they’re killing anyone who gets too close. Now, the boys must battle these monsters night after night, desperate to contain them. But the stronger their obsession grows, the more deadly the creatures become.
An Instant New York Times Bestseller, Don't Let the Forest In is a mesmerizing blend of psychological horror, dark romance, and eerie fairytale magic.
