An experience like no other. From a writer like no other. The virgin rainforest seems a paradise to Englishman Simon Corbett.
A last chance to salvage his career. A final refuge from a terrible secret. But the jungle is no Eden.
It hides secrets of its own. It does not forgive. As Simon is drawn deeper into its haunted shadows, he learns to his horror that the past will not stay buried.
For there are places in the forest where the line between the living and the dead is thinner than the skin of water. A terrifying supernatural tale from Sunday Times bestseller Michelle Paver, author of Dark Matter, Thin Air and Wakenhyrst.
Our Bookseller says:
"Michelle Paver is a master of the unsettling and sinister. The verdant and lush forests become a dark and foreboding place, with no escape. Paver can conjure an atmosphere in so few words, whether it's a lonely research station in the Arctic or a eerie Fen village, she puts you right in a place and then slowly reveals the horror beneath. If you are a fan of Susan Hill, M.R. James or Shirley Jackson, then Michelle Paver should be your next read."
