The midnight muse / Jo Kaplan.
"'The dead collect in low places.' That's what Brynn Werner, lead singer of metal band Queen Carrion, wrote in her notebook before she vanished while staying at a cabin in Oregon's Umpqua National Forest. A year later, on the anniversary of her disappearance, the rest of her bandmates visit the cabin to remember her and find a way to move on. But tensions arise over who should be their new singer and who is responsible for Brynn's disappearance--tensions that boil over as they realize not all is as it seems at Trail Creek Cabin. Strange entries in the guestbook write about visions of a pale form that moves through the trees, figures wearing gas masks lurk in the distance, and there's a strange fungus growing from the wall of a tunnel in the cabin's basement. Then they hear Brynn's voice echo impossibly through the forest--and the pale form that emerges from the trees is her perfect likeness. Is it her ghost ... or something else? Brynn knew there was a secret in these woods. It's why she chased her muse here to finish her masterpiece."-- Publisher description.
