Heartwood is dying out. Lost among the impenetrable forest, empty. Under the yoke of an endless organic wall, hopes, desires, and dreams perish. Here constant companions are anxiety and claustrophobia. Here it is better not to peer into the forest thicket - you might see something. Frank Oldman is the sheriff of Hartwood. He and his subordinates are probably the city's only hope for security and stability. Kyle McBride is a newcomer to the town. He just has to learn the dark secrets of Heartwood. Who knows what the future holds for the city. One thing is clear - there is no room for light in this future.
