Do Not Run

by Ashlee Pippin

Amerya thought she'd signed up for an ordinary security guard shift, but when the growls began, she realized too late that survival wasn't part of the job description. Her instincts scream for escape, but the darkness has other plans. With every step, she uncovers chilling secrets hidden within—a place where survival isn't guaranteed, and fear has a name. Do Not Run.

About the author

Ashlee was raised among the towering forests of Oregon, where the wild felt ancient and alive. She later found herself in the stark deserts and mountains of Utah, a landscape that sharpened her fascination with the eerie and the unknown. A mother of three and a graduate in environmental science, she studies the natural world with the same intensity she brings to her writing. Her stories dive into dark fantasy and horror, shaped by the belief that every beautiful thing has a shadow and every shadow has a story waiting to be told.
