The latest novel from celebrated folk horror writer Andrew Michael Hurley tracks the uncanny history of Barrowbeck over the course of several centuries.

 

‘Welcome to Barrowbeck. A hard place to live. A harder place to leave.’ This book takes readers on a journey through the dark and at times otherworldly history of Barrowbeck, with chapters progressing through the centuries beginning with the first settlers of the valley who are pushed there by raiders they believe to have been sent by the gods. As Hurley's previous books, the landscape of Barrowbeck becomes a character in itself, forefronting the themes and imagery familiar to fans of folk horror, and complementing the book’s unique narrative structure. Perfect for dark fiction enthusiasts and those seeking an experiential fiction read.
