Charles Hayden has been fascinated by a strange Victorian fairy tale, In the Night Wood, since he was a child. When his wife, Erin a descendant of the author inherits her ancestor's house, the couple decide to make it their home. Still mourning the recent death of their daughter, they leave America behind, seeking a new beginning in the English countryside.
But Hollow House, filled with secrets and surrounded by an ancient oak forest, is a place where the past seems very much alive. Isolated among the trees, Charles and Erin begin to feel themselves haunted by echoes of the stories in the house's library, by sightings of their daughter, and by something else, as old and dark as the forest around them.
A compelling and atmospheric gothic thriller, In the Night Wood reveals the chilling power of myth and memory.
In the Night Wood by Dale Bailey is a top contemporary fiction that masterfully blends supernatural elements with the thrill of horror. The ghostly echoes of the past and the chilling power of myth and memory make this book a standout in the genre.
For fans of Stacey Halls (Mrs England), Elizabeth Macneal (The Haunting Season), Silvia Moreno-Garcia (The Daughter of Doctor Moreau), Rhiannon Ward (The Quickening), and Diane Setterfield (Once Upon a River).
