<p>A <i>Times</i> Best Book of 2019.<br> <b>'Paver is one of Britain's modern greats. This sinister, gothic chiller shows why' <i>BIG ISSUE</i>, Books of the Year 2019. </b><i>"Something has been let loose..." </i><br><br>In <b>Edwardian Suffolk</b>, a manor house stands alone in a lost corner of <b>the Fens</b>: a glinting wilderness of water whose whispering reeds guard ancient secrets. <b>Maud</b> is a lonely child growing up without a mother, ruled by her repressive father. <br><br>When he finds a painted <b>medieval devil</b> in a graveyard, unhallowed forces are awakened. <br><br>Maud's battle has begun. She must survive a world haunted by <b>witchcraft</b>, the age-old legends of her beloved fen - and the even more nightmarish <b>demons of her father's past</b>. <br><br>Spanning five centuries, <i>Wakenhyrst</i> is <b>a darkly gothic thriller</b> about murderous obsession and one girl's longing to fly free by the bestselling author of <i>Dark Matter</i> and <i>Thin Air</i>. <i>Wakenhyrst</i> is an outstanding new piece of story-telling, a tale of mystery and imagination laced with terror. It is a masterwork in the modern gothic tradition that ranges from Mary Shelley and Bram Stoker to Neil Gaiman and Sarah Perry.</p>
