Candy has hidden her unique ability to shift between male and female her whole life, now she has the government hunting her for the one thing she can’t hide, her skin color. As she dodges the labs, she’s starting to wonder if humanity’s future is more important than her own.

Three by three grid of pictures: a white feather, a silhouette of a woman; a silhouette of a couple, a silhouette of a person with wings before a sunset; a silhouette of a woman wrapped in lights; a silhouette of a woman at sunset; a silhouette of a woman at sunrise; a couple kissing in the sun; a hand reaching out towards a window with sunlight.

A man in a villa swimming pool at night. A note saying 'I know what you did'. Partial photo of a dead woman floating in water. Mrs Danvers type silhouette parting fine, lace curtains. Other photos: a man standing at a desk, hanging his head; a couple kissing; a man carrying a woman's limp body in his arms; a woman gazing up at a man; a woman with her hands in front of her as if warding someone off; a woman in a party dress running up a staircase. Last few photos: a woman screaming, her head thrown back; a smashed wine glass; a couple embracing, the woman tearful.

THE GHOST WOODS meets THE SILENCE FACTORY in WOODBINE, a Gothic thriller in which a lonely stained-glass artist must reassemble the fractured pieces of his memory before a malevolent creeper destroys his last chance at love.

#2025pit #A #HF #T
Title screen of an agent's guide to Woodbine with a floral patterned background Pitch text: The Ghost Woods meets The Silence Factory in Woodbine, a Gothic thriller set in post-war Hampshire, UK, that explores love and nature as twin entities in their power both to heal and destroy. Stained-glass artist Tom Piper has lost his home to the bailiffs, his wife to another man and his daughter to an argument he can’t take back. But redemption comes in the form of Mary Goddard, the enigmatic owner of a crumbling country estate, who is willing to pay any price to restore a set of windows depicting the haunting love story of Tristram and Isolde. After a violent altercation with Mary’s delusional twin sister brings Tom and Mary together, their unlikely friendship quickly blossoms into something more. But when the lunatic sister starts talking sense at the same time as a mysterious creeper proceeds to wreak havoc throughout the house – and upon Tom himself – he is forced to question whether the feelings he has for Mary, and she for him, are the real thing or a madness all their own. Image shows a mood board featuring a fire, a moon on a misty night, a woman looking at herself in a handheld mirror and a grand doorway in a stately home. Comparison titles showing book covers of The Puzzle Wood by Rosie Andrews, The Ghost Woods by CJ Cooke, The Asylum by Karen Coles and The Silence Factory by Bridget Collins. Opening lines of Woodbine: The bride’s face was missing, that was the first thing I noticed. No one had escaped unscathed – the groom had lost everything from the waist down and the witnesses had been obliterated – but the neat hole at the neckline of her dress looked deliberate, as if a child had staved it in with a slingshot after the blast. I suppose that’s almost precisely what happened, though I didn’t know it at the time. I tutted and shook my head. Such a shame. Behind me, my new employer cleared her throat. ‘What do you think? Is there any hope?’
