Smoke On Mosswood Fell

A summer dare. A cruel prank. A fire that changed everything.

Andy, Matty, Josh, and Paul have been inseparable since childhood - the kind of friends who share everything, from secrets to summer adventures. When Paul's neighbour mentions strange sightings at the abandoned cottage on Mosswood Fell - long whispered to be haunted by the mysterious Grey Lady - the boys decide to investigate.

But their plans catch the attention of Marcus and his gang, who mock their courage and set a cruel prank in motion.

What begins as a dare spirals into a nightmare when a fire breaks out inside the cottage. The police discover a body in the wreckage - Kyle, a lonely boy caught in a web of bullying and despair, who had helped with the prank but met a tragic fate of his own.

As Marcus faces justice, Andy, Matty, Josh, and Paul are left to grapple with guilt, grief, and the fractures in their friendship that follow a summer none of them will ever forget.

Smoke on Mosswood Fell is a powerful, heart-wrenching coming of age story, about friendship, bravery, and the heavy cost of secrets kept too long.
