About the Story
One Red Arrow, Part I is a supernatural thriller that blends small town mystery with an unsettling force that hides in the woods. It follows Kay McQuinn as she returns to Owlsbourne, a town reshaped by the reach of BlackHole Pharmaceuticals. A strange encounter grants her an otherworldly gift, and with the help of Nick Knight she begins to unpick old legends, buried secrets, and a truth that is far darker than expected.
Synopsis
In the fall of 1989, Jonny Langley, a hunter from Owlsbourne, Connecticut, vanished without a trace. Three days later, he returned, disoriented and with no memory of what had happened to him.
No one suspected that Jonny’s disappearance would be connected to the bodies discovered more than three decades later.
In 2024, burned out artist Kay McQuinn returns to her decaying hometown. Owlsbourne is a shell of what it once was, its spirit gutted by the rise of BlackHole Pharmaceuticals, a corporation whose reach seems endless. With her life in freefall, Kay finds comfort in the woods and the McQuinn family tradition of bowhunting.
But one cold November morning, something finds her.
A surreal encounter leaves her with a strange, otherworldly power, and a glimpse into a darker reality just beneath the surface. As she struggles to understand what is happening to her, she turns to Nick Knight, a steady childhood friend.
Together, they must unravel the legends of the woods, uncover the secrets of BlackHole, and confront a truth far more sinister than either of them could have imagined.

John Ballentine on the Production
Earlier this year, @cult.class approached me with an exciting opportunity to help produce an audiobook for her new novel. Once we got @melissamedinavo and @kevindhartnell on board, I knew we had the team to make Caitlyn’s pulse pounding story leap off the page. ONE RED ARROW, a thrilling supernatural adventure, is now live on Audible. Just listen to the preview and you will be hooked. Support this independent artist and writer.
From the Author
…I recently wrote my debut novel, One Red Arrow, Part I. It is a supernatural thriller and creature feature with a female lead. Every piece of art that I make carries a piece of me, and this book is no exception. It took three years to write.
The self promotion can feel tiring, although I believe in this story, and as an independent author and publisher sharing it myself is the way to bring it to readers. Every order matters and helps visibility. The novel is available anywhere you buy books online, and the full cinematic audiobook is on Audible…

About the Score
The soundtrack is built almost entirely with synthesizers and with a touch of guitar. The tone is dark and retro futuristic with a current edge, inspired by classic genre work and by Stranger Things. One featured instrument is based on the Blaster Beam created by John Lazelle, which adds a resonant metallic presence that suits the atmosphere of the story.
