In the town of Maples Springs dark forces are at play as people go missing, heartbreak that residents just brush off, while Lucinda Mayweather strikes a deal with something in the shadows for the most precious thing in the world, and nothing will stop her from getting what she desires. While witch Lucinda Mayweather struggles to keep her dark pact with the shadow man, the townsfolk who are under her spell brush off yet another disappearance with bizarre explanations. And while most of the townsfolk accept the lies as truth, there are those who doubt their validity while spreading rumors of even crazier things such as monsters in the park. Meanwhile young Robyn Skidmoore, being one of the doubters, launches her own search for her missing best friend as she deals with tales of a legendary recluse, monsters, mob ties, and meddlesome townsfolk making things spin out of control for everyone.
US Review of Books (review of Poplar Falls)
"Arseneault is a clever storyteller who fills his tale with subplots that diverge and frequently intersect as his narrative unwinds."
Author Sarah Butland (review of Oakwood Island: The Awakening)
"The writers, New Brunswick duo Cormier and Arsenault, masterfully told a wicked tale of revenge, salvation and simple survival."
Author Joan Hall Hovey (review of Sleepless Nights)
“I thought the book was terrific, both the writing and the stories themselves. I like the way you’re drawn to the dark side of humanity; I relate. You’re on your way, Pierre.”
The Miramichi Reader
"Mr. Arseneault has crafted a very good story with several well-timed twists that keep your interest page after page."
