A new voice in British horror, that you\u2019ll want to read, has entered the field.&#8221; \u2013 Anon.<\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The plot line is new and exciting, I won\u2019t say any more about that because I don\u2019t want to give it away! But I know I was surprised more than once at what was happening.

This beautifully crafted tale of the horror that lurks in a picturesque English village is hopefully the first of many to come from this brilliant young author. Mr. Brown\u2019s extraordinary talent is evident as he paints a virtual feast for the reader with eloquently chosen prose in this powerfully engaging story.&#8221; Anon.<\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;An exciting, on the edge of your seat gothic that will have readers begging for more.&#8221; \u2013 Librarian<\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;An exciting d\u00e9but from a new young writer with a dark imagination.

I thought I would give it a try, but when I picked it up I couldn\u2019t put it down! It was a quick read, and the story was so creepily wonderful. I loved the author\u2019s writing style &#8211; the words flowed perfectly. Reading this was less like reading a book and more like watching the movie in my mind\u2019s eye. Fantastic! I highly recommend it! I can\u2019t wait to see what else Thomas Brown has in store for readers in the future.&#8221; \u2013 Goodreads Reviewer<\/p>\n<p>* * *<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is really rather good.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;\u2ca4an we talk about the thing \u04c0 loved most fir\u0455t?
