Welcome to Hazelwood
Read the Serial
Holly has seen what unsafe factories and powerful men can do to Hazelwood. Now she is building a business to protect workers from the slow death that took her father.
The piece of the Coin Tree inside her pulls her towards a concentrated store of give-back — the essence that seeds the trees. When Holly draws on it, her mind seems to reach further.
Patterns sharpen.
Connections come faster.
It is what helps her see a way towards the mask she hopes can save lives.
Together with her family, her mentor and the boy she loves, Holly must leave the simple world of Hazelwood behind and enter a harsher one of businessmen, money and ambition.
But something is stalking her.
Every time Holly reaches deeper into the world of the Coin Trees, she feels it. The same power that gives her an advantage may also be drawing something towards her — something patient, dangerous, and increasingly interested in both Holly and the trees.
As the business grows, Holly begins to realise that success in one world may be exposing her to danger in the other.
Discover the Origin Story
Holly had always been a little strange. On her sixteenth birthday, she finally discovered why. Her second sight opened, revealing the Presence around people and a hidden world of trees bearing fruit that looked like golden coins. For the first time, she understood why the soup-kitchen pot never runs dry.
But the world of the Coin Trees is a dangerous place for a young, inexperienced Gardener. Dark spaces threaten to consume Hazelwood, while in the real world greed and corruption are tearing families apart.
Only Holly can see the connection — and she must fight in both worlds.
