From the New York Times bestselling author of House of Salt and Sorrows comes a mesmerizing and chilling novel that's The Village meets Needful Things about a girl who must pay a price to make her secret wishes true.

Ellerie Downing lives in the quiet town of Amity Falls in the Blackspire Mountain range - five narrow peaks stretching into the sky like a grasping hand, bordered by a nearly impenetrable forest from which the early townsfolk fought off the devils in the woods. To this day, visitors are few and rare. But when a supply party goes missing, some worry that the monsters that once stalked the region have returned.

As fall turns to winter, more strange activities plague the town. They point to a tribe of devilish and mystical creatures who promise to fulfill the residents' deepest desires, however grand and impossible, for just a small favor. But their true intentions are much more sinister, and Ellerie finds herself in a race against time before all of Amity Falls, her family, and the boy she loves go up in flames.

Small Favors is a beautifully creepy gothic tale loosely based on the fairy tale of Rumpelstiltskin.

Raised with a deep love for folklore, fairy tales, and the gothic tradition, Erin has always been captivated by the beauty of the unknown and the mysterious. From a young age, she immersed herself in books that explored strange realms and characters driven by secrets, often weaving her own stories of magic, intrigue, and betrayal. This early fascination with the gothic and fantastical naturally led her to pursue writing that would both enchant and unsettle readers, a blend of romantic longing and gothic tension that would define her voice.

Erin's debut novel, House of Salt and Sorrows, established her as a unique voice in the young adult fantasy genre, offering a dark twist on the classic fairy tale. Set on an isolated island where a family of sisters is cursed, House of Salt and Sorrows is a hauntingly atmospheric novel that blends the enchantment of fairy tales with a chilling sense of foreboding. Her writing is not just about creating worlds; it's about crafting experiences that leave a lingering feeling long after the book is closed.

Her novels often explore themes of loss, love, family, and the deep secrets that can haunt even the most beautiful places. She weaves complex emotions into her narratives, creating characters who are both relatable and mysterious—women and men who must face their fears, confront dark truths, and make sacrifices to uncover the truth. Craig’s characters are marked by their strength, resilience, and vulnerability, qualities that resonate deeply with readers.

With a love for atmospheric, character-driven stories that blur the line between fantasy and reality, Erin A. Craig continues to captivate readers who crave rich, immersive tales that transport them into worlds where nothing is as it seems, and every corner holds the potential for both danger and wonder.
