RAWAH: The Wild Place is a haunting supernatural thriller set deep within the isolated wilderness of northern Colorado. When Joseph Backes discovers a remote valley beneath the Rawah Range in the 1920s, he dreams of building a family ranch and exclusive fly-fishing retreat surrounded by untouched beauty. Alongside his wife, sons, and future generations, the Backes family transforms the land into a mountain paradise. But the valley has a history older than memory. Strange disappearances, unsettling encounters, and an overwhelming sense of being watched begin to shadow the family’s lives. As the years pass, the wilderness reveals itself to be far more than empty land. Something ancient lingers in the forests, rivers, and mountains—something patient, intelligent, and deeply connected to the valley itself. Blending historical fiction, wilderness realism, psychological horror, and cosmic dread, RAWAH: The Wild Place is a slow-burning descent into fear where the beauty of the Colorado high country hides an ancient darkness that refuses to be forgotten.
