Three Forks is a settlement of new beginnings... or at least that's what Pete tells himself. Sixteen years ago, the Levin brothers moved from the city to the mountains to start their lumber company and create a name for themselves, along with the town Three Forks, but something never sat right with Iva when the workers kept disappearing... and ghastly remains kept being found. After being released from prison, Pete is looking forward to a rare second chance in Three Forks, West Virginia, working for the Levin Lumber Company. Although he struggles to get along with his drunk boss and the town of people who want to avoid him, he knows this opportunity isn't one to be wasted-he has a family he needs to send money home to and a felony for murder on his record, leaving him with few prospects. It was almost too good to be true when he received that letter from Henry Levin just before his sentence was up, but as this town-and its woods-reveals their secrets, Pete wonders if receiving that letter was truly too good to be true after all... because life in the stix isn't for the faint of heart.
