A haunting, lyrical coming-of-age story set in the Welsh woodlands, brimming with atmosphere and one-of-a-kind characters.
'A beautifully written novel imbued with empathy, spirits and magic' Scottish Daily Mail
Spring, 1985.
Phoebe MacDonald's world is falling apart.
After losing her parents in a tragic house fire, twelve-year-old Phoebe must now leave Scotland - the only place she has ever known - to live with her aunt and uncle deep within the Welsh woods.
Lonely and grieving, she slowly falls into the rhythm of life with her eccentric guardians and their curious home. She finds solace among the trees, and befriends a strange girl, Gwyneth, who wanders the forest barefoot and alone. With her guidance, Phoebe begins to see the true wonder of the woods - a place of magic, where spirits roam and secrets fester.
These woods conceal a dark truth; a wrong that yearns to be put right.
The answer lies within her grasp. In unearthing it, what dangers might she invite?

J. D. Oswald is the pseudonym for James Oswald, author of the Sunday Times-bestselling Inspector McLean series of detective mysteries, as well as the DC Constance Fairchild series.

James farms pedigree Highland cows by day, writes disturbing fiction by night.
