Then a girl called Parsley appears at their camp with no memory of how she got there. As Sara and Parsley grow closer, Sara’s younger brother Noah is taken by the creatures they call Witches. Their search drags them across desolate moors and into dangerous questions about trust, belief and what remains worth saving. Perfect for readers who love folklore-infused horror, queer dystopian fiction, and atmospheric British settings. Step into the dark and see what’s waiting.
