A gripping and claustrophobic rural gothic horror novel about an isolated family
who worship the bog that surrounds them, perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher and
Stephen Graham Jones. It is said that the Haddesleys have too much of the bog in
their blood to live in the world. Living an isolated existence in the
Appalachians, they observe strange rituals and worship the forest and mud that
surrounds them. When Charles, the patriarch of the family, reveals he is dying,
his children rally around him, only to find their fraying bonds tearing apart
one by one, and their beliefs upended. For Wenna, the only Haddesley to have
ever escaped the forest, it means coming home to face difficult truths. For
Charlie, the eldest son, his father's death means facing up to new, terrifying
responsibilities. Because the bog is waiting, ever-growing, ever-hungry, and if
the Haddesley children aren't careful, they will awaken something they have
tried to keep at bay for a century.
