From acclaimed artist and writer Norm Konyu, Aurora Award winner for A Call to Cthulhu, comes a visually stunning paranormal thriller.

A journey through mystery and time, via a labyrinth of eerie forests - with mind-bending twists and supernatural threats.


Norm Konyu delivers a supernatural and psychological thriller graphic novel, set in an eerie and extraordinary forest where Meera and Mark, an ordinary couple, find themselves lost during their journey to find a new home.

After an accident within the forest, the house hunters become the hunted. They must navigate a labyrinth of time and space, surrounded by towering trees with unusual qualities. As they wander deeper into the wilderness, they discover dark secrets and ancient powers that manipulate their every move.

The forest isn’t just alive - it’s watching. The couple must find a way to escape before they become lost forever in a world that defies logic and reason.

Norm Konyu, the award-winning creator of A Call To Cthulhu (2024 Aurora Award for Best Graphic Novel), The Junction, and Downlands, brings his signature style and talent to this uncanny and unforgettable tale. His mastery of animation and graphic storytelling infuses the pages with haunting visuals and a palpable sense of dread.

Blending elements of supernatural horror with psychological tension, readers are drawn into the twisted reality between the trees, where time is fluid, fear is constant, and every turn is a new nightmare. This is a journey where nothing is ever what it seems.
Norm Konyu has been a professional animator for more years than he cares to remember, working for companies such as the BBC, Dreamworks, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network. In 2024, he won the Aurora Award for the Best Graphic Novel Category with A Call to Cthulhu, and he was the Senior Animator on BAFTA and International EMMY award-winning preschool series Hey Duggee.

A Canadian, Norm currently resides in the UK. The Junction was his first foray into the world of graphic novels since his teenage years.
