Red Snow in Valley Forge

Winter is already killing the Continental Army. Something else has begun hunting it.Valley Forge, 1777. Hunger, disease, and bitter cold have pushed Washington's army to the edge of collapse. Silas Mercer has learned to survive by remaining watchful, careful, and unnoticed—until soldiers begin appearing dead beyond the tree line.The bodies bear no wounds. There is no blood. Their tracks simply end in the snow.The arrival of several French volunteers only deepens the mystery. They are too healthy, too well-fed, and far too comfortable moving through the darkness. Among them is Henri Sorel, a charming and dangerous stranger who takes an unsettling interest in Silas. Henri recognizes something within the young soldier: discipline, buried anger, and a hunger waiting to be awakened.As more men disappear, Silas is drawn into a hidden conflict between creatures who have survived for centuries by feeding from humanity. Some believe restraint is the only way to endure. Others see the starving army as nothing more than an abundant supply of prey.Caught between them, Silas must survive the winter while resisting a hunger more powerful than cold—and decide how much of his humanity he is willing to sacrifice to live.Red Snow in Valley Forge blends Revolutionary War history with atmospheric vampire horror, psychological tension, and a dark struggle between control and instinct. History remembers the suffering at Valley Forge. It does not remember what hunted beneath the trees.
