The Hollow

About “The Hollow”

In Nora Roberts' 2008 novel, seven is a number that brings fear to Fox, Caleb, Gage, and the other residents of Hawkins Hollow. Their childhood ritual, which involved spilling blood on The Pagan Stone, freed a demon and triggered seven days of madness every seven years. Now, as the seventh month approaches, the men face another cycle of visions and chaos. This time, they are joined by three women—Layla, Quinn, and Cybil—who are also linked to the demon. Fox, who can read minds, shares this ability with Layla, and their connection is key to fighting the growing darkness. However, Layla struggles with her powers and the intense feelings she has for Fox.
