A haunting tale of resurrection, war, and the ancient power that binds the land.

In the bitter winter of 1778, Jacob Hawthorne is hung for treason by British soldiers—another rebel silenced in a forgotten skirmish. But death doesn’t hold. Buried shallow in frozen earth, Jacob claws his way from the grave, reborn not by miracle but by something older and darker: the forest.

Bound to a spectral force that whispers through roots and bone, Jacob becomes more than a man—he becomes a revenant. As the Revolutionary War rages on, he joins two rebel soldiers on a shadow mission to unravel the secrets of the Golden Circle, a hidden faction using forbidden rituals to summon spirits and tip the war in their favor.

Equal parts historical fiction and dark fantasy, The Revenant’s Mark blends the grit of war with the eerie beauty of American folklore. This debut novel from award-winning screenwriter and U.S. Marine veteran Wes is a story of reckoning, resilience, and the spirits that never sleep.
