Publisher's Summary
From the critically acclaimed author of Hekla’s Children comes a dark and haunting tale of our world and the next.
Fleeing from a traumatic break-in, Londoners Paul and Tricia Feenan sell up to escape to the isolated Holiwell village where Tricia has inherited a property. Scattered throughout the settlement are centuries-old stones used during the Great Plague as boundary markers. No plague-sufferer was permitted to pass them and enter the village. The plague diminished, and the village survived unscathed, but since then each year the village trustees have insisted on an ancient ceremony to renew the village boundaries, until a misguided act by the Feenans’ son then reminds the village that there is a reason traditions have been rigidly stuck to, and that all acts of betrayal, even those committed centuries ago, have consequences....

Read it, you will be happy you did.
I’m a huge fan of this writer, I’ve just discovered him and it this book is even better then the first one I read, The Hollow Tree, and that was amazing. The narrator was excellent. It’s such a timely topic too. Loved it.

Brilliant Book!
Very enthralling! It seemed rather unassuming at the start, but for some reason I just could stop listening, that nagging feeling that I just had to know how it was all connected. Highly recommend.

Fantastic!
I loved that the story felt rooted in factual history. I'm thankful for audio books as had I of started reading this via a paper book I wouldn't have been able to put it down and nothing would get done! I was also very pleased with the narrator's performance, he did a marvelous job. Highly recommend giving it a go.

Fantastic Listen!
This was in my Plus catalog so I gave it a go for something to listen to, The narration was fantastic and the story captured me from the start with engaging characters and well written story line. Well worth a listen. Enjoyable little English folk horror and loved the humour throughout.

fun!
Classic horror tropes with modern twists, and enjoyable listen but occasionally a bit cheesy. Interesting vocal performances.
